The unit provides an in-depth study of the software construction process. Topics covered include the specification, modularisation and verification of abstract data types (ADTs); data structures including arrays, stacks, queues, lists, trees, sets, maps, hash tables and heaps; and algorithms including sort, search and recursion. For ADTs in general, the unit deals with operations, representation and algorithms, space and time efficiency, and appropriateness for different applications.
This unit may be cotaught with 9073 Software 妹团视频 2 G.

Learning outcomes

On completion of this unit students will be able to:
1. Describe a variety of algorithm design techniques and recognise the principles of good software design;
2. Apply their knowledge of algorithms and data structures to writing efficient programs;
3. Analyse and compare commonly used algorithms and data structures;
4. Design efficient algorithms and choose appropriate data structures for real-world problems and explain their space and time efficiency; and
5. Evaluate existing software modules for function and purpose.


Graduate attributes

1. UC graduates are professional - use creativity, critical thinking, analysis and research skills to solve theoretical and real-world problems
2. UC graduates are global citizens - make creative use of technology in their learning and professional lives

Submission of assessment items

Extensions & Late submissions

Responsibility for understanding

If there is any doubt with regard to the requirements of any particular assignments or assessment procedure, the onus for clarifying the issue rests with the student who should contact the unit convenor or tutor. Further, it is the responsibility of students to ensure that they are correctly enrolled in the unit and that the tutor and Student Administration have their correct contact details.

Full details for each assessment item will be available on the Canvas site.

Artificial intelligence

  • Restricted: Means prohibited in all assessments.

More detailed information can be found at GenAI and Assessment at UC

Special assessment requirements

To pass the unit, the student need to submit all the assignments, and score 50% aggregate mark, calculated as follows:

Aggregate Mark = Quiz 1 mark + Quiz 2 mark + Quiz 3 mark + Assignment 1 mark + Assignment 2 mark

The grade for the unit will be based on the Aggregate Mark, and follows the standard 妹团视频 grading critieria.

Supplementary assessment

Except as directed by University Rules suplementary assesment is not offered in this subject.

Programming Assignments must be submitted as zip files, they should contain BlueJ Java project files, code files, reports and evidence of testing. Students should specificaly use ZIP, not some other archival method.

Students must apply academic integrity in their learning and research activities at UC. This includes submitting authentic and original work for assessments and properly acknowledging any sources used.

Academic integrity involves the ethical, honest and responsible use, creation and sharing of information. It is critical to the quality of higher education. Our academic integrity values are honesty, trust, fairness, respect, responsibility and courage.

妹团视频 students have to complete the annually to learn about academic integrity and to understand the consequences of academic integrity breaches (or academic misconduct).

UC uses various strategies and systems, including detection software, to identify potential breaches of academic integrity. Suspected breaches may be investigated, and action can be taken when misconduct is found to have occurred.
