Bringing Industry Practices in J2ME Development to an Undergraduate Wireless Engineering Curriculum

更广泛的影响该项目通过在课堂上采用和实施无线行业最佳实践，提高了无线系统软件开发人员的教育水平。诺基亚是全球领先的无线手机制造商。本项目在一套核心无线软件工程课程中采用并实施了一个软件质量保证程序CE诺基亚的OK Java 2 Platform Micro Edition （J2ME）应用程序认证过程CE。奥本大学于2002年8月开设了美国第一个本科无线工程学位课程。这些课程构成了无线工程学位的软件工程轨道。本项目的目标是：1)将诺基亚OK应用标准改编为课堂使用，作为行业质量软件的期望示例；2)将诺基亚OK软件开发工具整合到学生友好的软件开发环境中；3)实施内部诺基亚OK认证程序，作为评估学生项目和提供反馈的基础。我们预期的结果是：1)学生们将沉浸在与他们在工作的第一年可能遇到的技术相似的技术中；2)适用于课堂的无线行业标准，将J2ME开发能力纳入现有流行的软件工具，以及在学术环境中实现的行业测试过程；3)在课堂上使用无线行业实践的有效性的证据。

Broader ImpactThis project advances the state of education for wireless system software developers by adapting and implementing wireless industry best practices in the classroom. Nokia is the leading manufacturer of wireless handsets worldwide. This project adapts and implements a software quality assurance program CE Nokia's OK Java 2 Platform Micro Edition (J2ME) application certification process CE in a core set of wireless software engineering courses. Auburn University initiated the nation's first undergraduate wireless engineering degree program in August, 2002. These courses make up the software engineering track of the wireless engineering degree.Intellectual MeritThe objectives of this project are 1) to adapt Nokia OK application standards forclassroom use as examples of what is expected of industry-quality software; 2) to incorporate Nokia OK software development tools into a student-friendly software development environment; and 3) to implement in-house Nokia OK certification procedures as a basis for assessing student projects and providing feedback.Our anticipated outcomes are 1) students who will have been immersed in a technology similar to what they are likely to encounter in their first years of work; 2) wireless industry standards adapted to the classroom, J2ME development capabilities incorporated into an existing popular software tool, and an industry testing process implemented in an academic setting; and 3) evidence of the effectiveness of using wireless industry practices in the classroom.
