At the end of the course, students should be able to:
1. Explain and report the principles, basic of interface
design and technologies behind the rules to play the
games.
2. Show how the functions of computer games can be
used to create experience, including rules design,
game mechanic, game balancing, social game
integration and the integration of visual, audio, tactile
and textual elements into the game experience.
3. Describe and construct how characters, plots and
dialogues are developed in interactive story telling.
4. Construct text based and graphical computer
games’ prototypes.

Synopsis
Synopsis
Electronic game is one of the most popular forms of
entertainment that we need to understand from the
perspectives of commercial products, cultural phenomena
and computer technology particularly computer graphics.
An understanding of software technologies such as
graphics, networks, software design and artificial
intelligence as well as the cultural context is necessary in
designing and developing computer games. This subject
focuses on the design of computer games and how
different technologies can be adopted in practical
projects.

This course will introduce students to the concept application
software development cycle especially requirement analysis
and software design which based on objects, UML notations,
difference between OOAD and SDM. It covers requirement
analysis modeling besides activity diagram, sequence diagram
and class diagram. Design phase will be introduced to
students including on how to develop relations between class,
operations, attributes, decomposition, frameworks, layers and
tiers.

Synopsis
Multimedia Database Management System (MDBMS) is a
DBMS that support traditional and multimedia data types. The
DBMS is able to handle large cluster of multimedia entities.
This subject covers main components that need to be
integrated into conventional DBMS for practical usage in
multimedia application development.
This includes an overview of multiple features and approaches
in handling large cluster of multimedia entities by current
DBMS. Consequently, a set of features and functionalities
needed by an MDBMS to support various multimedia data
types effectively and efficiently is being developed.
Show and explain the concepts, issues, techniques
and various GIS applications.
Solve information system problems based on the
GIS language technique.
Justify the issues in GIS management based on the
information from various resources.
Synopsis
This course will introduce students to Geographic Information
Systems (GIS). GIS is a computer based data processing tool
that is used to manage, analyze and visualise spatial data. It
can be considered as advanced database. Students will
explore some of the GIS applications in in the area of
electronic government, resources management, disaster
management, businesses, banking and insurance industries.
Students must be familiar with traditional methods of
identifying and describing locations using paper maps. The
students will begin by examining the geographic basics of
mapping and examine the processes in which spatial data can
be recorded, captured, stored, processed using computers.
Next, the students will introduce the methods used in spatial
analysis. The final portion of the course will focus on spatial
cartographic presentation of data.
