Software acquisition and requirements
When acquering new software, most people are not sure what they want. They know what type of product is needed but not what functions needed to be met in order to fulfill the requirements. This course will show how it's posible to find all requirements through analysis.
Venturing into Software Businesses
Outsourcing, global competition and collaboration, open source software, new business models, market monopolies, local government and international regulation, and mobile devices are some of the challenges and opportunities facing entrepreneurs in today’s rapidly changing society. Both EU and the Danish government regard SMEs (small and medium sized enterprises) as having a strong potential in the ICT (information and communication technology) market.
The course will provide an inspiration and opportunity for students who consider venturing into new software businesses, covering the most important topics to be dealt with in this area. Relevant theories, techniques, and real-life examples will be presented and discussed, and provided with this background students will develop, describe and analyze new software-based businesses, based on their own visions and ideas.
