You and members of your organization are invited
to participate in a live satellite broadcast titled:
Increasing  Software Reuse by Switching to C++ and
Object-Oriented Programming

presented by the University of Maryland
Instructional Television System
on July 13, July 20, and July 27, 1995.

For information about this seminar, you can e-mail us at
itv@jolt.eng.umd.edu  or call us at (301)-405-4905

Enrollment:
This 3 day seminar will be broadcast live via satellite on
 the National Technological University (NTU) Network.
 (Seminar Code MC95071301).
 To participate in this seminar your organization must be a
 member of NTU.  A list of NTU sites is included at the end
of this post. If you have questions about NTU
registration/membership, please call (303) 495-6400.

Seminar Description:  This seminar helps the student with
the shift from C to C++ and from functional programming
to object-oriented programming.  These topics are examined
 in the light of the practical need to build abstract data types
 that have a high degree of reusability.  With this approach,
C++ becomes not just a "better C," but the basis of a
paradigm that allows great productivity gains.  The seminar
will include practical examples based on classical data
 structures as well as models of application-specific objects.
The seminar will be paced to give students time to work out
the problems and send them in to the instructor for comment.

Benefits:  After completing this seminar, you will:
*  Understand the differences between C and C++
*  Know how data abstractions and recursion are used to
    enhance reuse
*  Learn the syntax and semantics of C++ classes and objects
*  Know how to use inheritance and polymorphism in C++
*  Understand how container classes are used to build
    reusable software for such classical data structures as lists,
    stacks, queues, trees, sets, dictionaries and files
*  Learn how to build application-specific objects that are easy
    to reuse by drawing on data abstractions and inheritance

Intended Audience:  Engineers, programmers, and software
designers who are considering switching from C to C++ to gain
 productivity through software reuse

Prerequisites:  Some experience in writing programs is
necessary.  The ability to understand programming examples
written in C is assumed.
