It's preferable that the student has got the courses content of Master 1.

Aims and Objectives

The main objective is to place the student in a professional context. This will facilitate the operational transfer and better prepare the students to the future industrial engineering profession.

Indeed, they will have to lead teams of software development while ensuring the project design and the implementation of advanced technical solutions.

Description

The content proposed here is rather general and difficult: a virtual enterprise is defined, a complete computerization problem is posed. But it will be simply stated that certain technologies will be used at points to identify during the analysis process. Among them, those who have not been studied in 1st master are studied in the formal course. They affect areas as diverse as the management of data on mobile devices, the data mining data extracted from opertional data, the electronic payments and the strategies of information security (including the use of smart cards and electronical identity smart card), access controls to data and resources, the use of frameworks and professional software  dedicated to access and reporting of information ...

For the rest (choice of analysis techniques, choice of development tools, etc.), it's the student group responsible for the project to make choices of any particular operating system or a particular server, to define the communications protocols, data structure, etc.. The group has to choose and to succesfully perform the technical tests.
