About the Course Android Track 的简介

Handheld systems, such as smartphones and tablets are now the most common way for people to access and interact with computing services. The demand for application development skills is therefore growing at a breathtaking pace. These skills, however,    are multi-­‐ faceted, requiring students to master computer science and engineering principles, to learn the details of specific mobile application platforms, and to design artistic and engaging user interfaces that respond to how, where and why handheld    applications are used.
This course will cover the fundamental programming principles, software architecture and user experience considerations underlying handheld software applications and their development environments. To bring these concepts alive, the course will involve    in-­‐depth, hands-­‐on examples, implemented in the Android Platform, the fastest growing segment of the handheld system user base. Students will apply these teachings, also using the Android Platform, in laboratory projects and in a large-­‐scale    semester project.

Note: This course is part of a trans-institution course sequence.
This course and two others, led respectively by Drs. Douglas Schmidt and Jules White of Vanderbilt University, have been designed to complement each other. Therefore, some of the programming assignments and the course project for these courses will be coordinated.
This course focuses on handheld systems and the design of user-facing applications, and will be taught first. The first Vanderbilt University course, Pattern-Oriented Software Architectures: Programming Mobile Services for Android Handheld Systems will    focus on systems programming topics, such as middleware services and background processing, That course is currently schedule to start in March 2014.  The second Vanderbilt University course, Programming Cloud Services for Android Handheld Systems will focus on connecting Android mobile devices to cloud computing and data storage resources, essentially turning a device into an extension of powerful cloud-based services on popular cloud computing platforms, such as Google App Engine and Amazon EC2. That course is currently scheduled to begin in early June 2014.
Nevertheless, each of these courses stands alone. Students are not required to take all of them. Those who do, however, will gain a much more detailed, end-to-end understanding of handheld systems and their applications.

Rice的Python也开了，可以拿certificate 好像有一系列三个课程 已经付钱注册了 ~~~

恩 3月24日开 如果我每记错的话。。。49刀 比起学校里动辄几百上千刀的学费 我觉得还是很值得的。少买一双UGG三门课的钱都在了，哈哈

UGG亮了
话说这三门python比较偏向编程开发还是数据处理啊
