Content

In this course, we study the latest features of Java to address challenging programming
problems in bioinformatics. Topics include JavaFx, two- and thirddimensional
graphics, properties and bindings, animation, concurrent programming
and webprogramming. We will build a full-featured, interactive bioinformatics
program.
Objectives

The students are able to design and implement a fully featured bioinformatics
program. They are able to analyze a computational problem and to develop
an appropriate solution. They are aware of both the possibilities and the limitations
of the application of Java to solve computational tasks. They are able
to analyse problems on a scientific level and summarise them in writing. In
particular, a high degree of intrinsic motivation and personal responsibility is
encouraged.
