CSE 221

Object Oriented
Programming with Web-
Based Applications
This course will continue with object-
oriented programming and will
introduce graphics, virtual machines,
programming language concepts and
web-based programming using Java.
 Course Objectives
 CSE 221 introduces graphics, virtual
machines, programming language
concepts and web-based programming
using Java. Topics include object oriented
design, event-handling methods, Web
technologies, virtual machines, graphical
user interfaces, API programming. This
course uses Java as the object oriented
computer language to complement the
C++ computer language from the
previous programming course in preparing
computer science and computer
engineering majors to meet immediate
 Course Objectives
 CSE 221 is the third course in a 3-course
programming sequence. This course extends the
understanding of basic paradigms and concepts
in computer science and computer engineering
with a second course of object oriented design,
classes and subclasses. Web technologies, client-
server computing, common gateway interface
(CGI) programs, client-side scripts, and Java
applets are just a few of the concepts presented
in the third course that stresses the principles of
graphical user interfaces (GUI). The 3-course
programming sequence reinforces fundamental,
intermediate and advanced levels of
sophistication in both C++ classes and Java
classes with GUI in the third course of the
programming sequence.
 Course Objectives
 CSE 221 programming assignments
in Java require an understanding of
the entire process of client/server
development. A small-group
semester project must be
successfully completed within time-
lines by following these steps:
interface prototyping, program
design, implementation of both client
and server programs, unit testing,
 Primary Outcomes
Upon completion of the course, students
should be able to successfully complete:
 Correctly implement a class in the target
language, including the appropriate use of
public and private methods and data.
 Implement a subclass of the existing class
in order to extend the functionality of the
base class in order to solve the stated
problem.
 Design and implement a reusable
collection class, including iteration, in the
target language.
 Primary Outcomes
(continued)
 Create an event-handling program
which incorporates exception
handling.
 Create and manipulate files and
internally stored data structures
containing binary graphical data in
JPG and PNG format.
 Implement his or her own simple
client and server programs using
appropriate inter-process
 Primary Outcomes
(continued)
 Create and execute both a client and
a server-side CGI program, including
both GET and POST protocols.
 Write a simple web server program
using standard HTTP protocols.
 Demonstrate an understanding of
issues of security, permissions and
file management with regard to a
client/server system.
 Primary Outcomes
(continued)
 Demonstrate an understanding of the
concept of a virtual machine and
intermediate code generation (Java-
specific).
 Create a program using the following
user interface features: text box, list
box, radio buttons, check boxes.
 Write a server-side program which
will translate a client request into a
database query, execute it, and
return the resultant data.
 Primary Outcomes
(continued)
 Demonstrate an understanding of the
entire process of client/server
development by following these
steps in the completion of a small-
group semester project: interface
prototyping, program design,
implementation of both client and
server programs, unit testing, and
documentation.
