Course Title: Graphics, Numerical Methods, and Software
Project Management
Course No: ICTED 3231 Full marks: 75 + 25 Nature of Course: Theory and Practical Pass marks: 35% + 40% Period per week: 6 + 3 150per year Course Description This course deals with computer graphics consisting of introduction of graphical system, different hardware used in the graphical system, implementation of two dimensional algorithms, different types of graphical languages, and understanding in three dimensional graphics and their implementation. This course also deals with numerical methods which lay out the principles of solution of nonlinear equations, interpolation and approximation, numerical differentiation and integration, application of ordinary and partial differential equations, and their solution for practical purposes. The course in software project management discusses the software engineering approach to modern software development process (Unified Process). The project enables the student to develop computer package for practical use independently. General Objectives The general objectives of this course are as follows:

Laboratory: Develop
a graphical project. The topic could be either initiated by the student
or
selected form a list provided by the instructor. An oral presentation
with a
demonstration should be part of the laboratory project report. The
laboratory experiments in the numerical methods will consist of program
development and testing of non-linear equations, Interpolation,
numerical
integration and differentiation, linear algebraic equations, ordinary
and
partial differential equations. 4.
Instructional Techniques The
