REPORT OF THE SYLLABUS COMMITTEE APPOINTED BY THE FACULTY

OF SCENCE FOR B.Sc. COMPUTER SCIENCE COURSE

(T.Y.B.Sc. COMPUTER SCIENCE SYLLABUS)

The committee held several meetings to frame the syllabus of B.Sc. (Computer Science)
at T.Y.B.Sc. level. After extensive discussions, the committee arrived at following
conclusions:
1. The ordinances and regulations regarding:
a) The standards of passing at T.Y.B.Sc. exam
b) The scheme of examination
c) The number of papers, practicals and marks allotted to them
d) The number of lectures per paper, number of periods per paper per week,
number of periods of practicals etc.
Pertaining to T.Y.B.Sc. (Computer Science) will be identical to the ordinances and
regulations existing and notified from time to time, which are applicable to other
subjects such as Physics, Chemistry at T.Y.B.Sc. level. Hence, no separate draft of
ordinances and regulations is given.
2. The committee, after deliberations decided that the titles, of the papers of
T.Y.B.Sc. (Computer Science) are to be changed as given in Annexure I. The
Course structure and other details are also given in Annexure I.
3. The detailed syllabus for T.Y.B.Sc. (Computer Science) is given in Annexure II.
There are Six Units in each paper. If there are two sections, each section of the
paper is divided in 3 Units. The detailed references are mentioned at the end of
each section instead of merely giving a list of reference book at the end of the
paper. It is expected that the question paper will have twelve questions, two in
each unit, with internal option. The student will be required to attempt six
questions, one in each unit. Thus the study of any unit in the paper may not be left
as an option.
4. Annexture II also gives a list of practicals, with minimum number of practicals to
be performed.
5. For the purpose of examination, the breakup of total marks for practicals (200 for
Group I to IV and 80 for Applied Component) will be as follows:
A) Main subject Practical Examination:
Experiment I (Group I Practical) : 45 Marks
Experiment II (Group II Practical) : 45 Marks
Experiment III (Group III Practical): 45 Marks.
Experiment IV (Group IV Practical
-PROJECT ): 50 Marks.
Journal(Group I to III) & Viva-voce on Journal: 15 Marks.
-------------
Total 200 Marks.
-------------

Prop. Syllabus Page 1 of 35 T.Y.B.Sc.Comp.Sc. Jan 2001
 B) Applied Component Practical Examination:
Experiment I : 35 Marks.
Experiment II: 35* Marks.
Journal & Viva-voce
on Journal : 10 Marks.
---------------
Total 80 Marks.

*Note: 1.Expt. II examination will be in the form of demonstration and Viva-voce on

project, as mentioned in the syllabus.
2. Each student must maintain a record of the experiments & projects performed,
as per the syllabus and must bring the certified journals and project reports, duly
signed by the teacher concerned and the Head of the Dept. at the time of final
examination.

6. Requirement of the batch size, number of students per computer in a batch and the
network configuration and other details are same as mentioned in Annexure III
(pages 21,22) of the earlier report of the committee.

7. As regards the lab requirement (Hardware & Software), space and time table
requirements are satisfied; the colleges may have multiple batches at T.Y.B.Sc.
(Computer Science) Class.

8. As already mentioned in earlier report (para 2, page 1), “The Bachelor of Science
(B.Sc.) with Computer Science course will have the status, as one of the subject at
the B.Sc. Course. It is further clarified that adequate laboratory staff (viz. Lab.
Assistant and Lab attendant) are required for conduct of B.Sc. Computer Science
Practicals, on the same pattern as with the other science subjects such as Physics,
Chemistry etc. For smooth conduct of practicals at F.Y., S.Y. & T.Y.B.Sc.
(Computer Science), a minimum of 1 Lab. Asst. and a minimum of 1 Lab.
Attendant be provided for each lab, each session, during entire period of
laboratory practical session.

9. As the field of Computer Science is advancing at a rapid rate, the committee

strongly recommends that a provision be made for an automatic review of
Computer Science syllabus more frequently i.e. every two years.

10. In view of fast changing nature of the subjects in Computer Science Course and
certainty of non-availability of “in-house” faculty to teach them (Which is a
global and industry-wide phenomenon); it is strongly recommended that the
Orientation Courses be conducted in the summer vacation before the new
T.Y.B.Sc. Course syllabus is introduced and also after review/revision of the
syllabi in the subject of Computer Science at F.Y., S.Y. & T.Y. B.Sc. levels.

________________________________________________________________________
Prop. Syllabus Page 2 of 35 T.Y.B.Sc.Comp.Sc. Jan 2001
 11. The committee strongly recommends that workshops be held periodically to
discuss:

(a) New/Current topics in the syllabus and changes required in the syllabus.
(b) Uniformity in teaching and implementation of the syllabus,
Difficulties encountered in teaching and implementation of the syllabi.
(c) Methods to be adopted for assessment and the examination etc.

12. The Committee strongly feels that without active support, including the financial
support for holding these “Orientation Courses” & “Workshops”; the
implementation of the syllabus will be jeopardized. This observation stems from
the facts that i) The Computer Science is a new and recently introduced subject at
B.Sc. level, unlike well entrenched subjects like Chemistry, Zoology etc. and
ii) Special nature of the subject needs preferential treatment and nurturing.

13. The Committee wishes to thank numerous faculty members, of different colleges,
for their interest, discussions and valuable suggestions.

14. The Committee puts on record the valuable help rendered by A.A. section of the
University and all the facilities extended.

I, as a convener, thank all the members of the Syllabus Committee for their
active Co-operation, without which the task would not have been completed.

 PRACTICALS

Group I
Advanced Java - I Practicals
Notes:
The following instructions about Java practicals should be carried out in the interest of
uniformity in their conduct across all the constituent colleges of University of Mumbai.
1. The practicals should be performed on the J2SE jdk 1.3 platform. The J2SE jdk
1.3 is downloadable from the java.sun.com website.
2. The compilation and execution should be from the bare command prompt
available on the Windows 9.x or compatible system. Other IDE’s should not be
used for program entry, editing, debugging, compilation or testing.
3. Methods available in jdk 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2, which are deprecated by jdk 1.1, 1.2 or
1.3 should not be used in programs.
4. The practical problems must be solved using the best possible methods available
on the jdk 1.3, irrespective of whether those methods form a part of the T.Y.B.Sc.
(Theory) Advanced Java-I and/or Advanced Java-II syllabus or not. Though there
is a substantial correlation between the T.Y.B.Sc. Java theory and practicals, the
practicals are not to be treated as a subset of the theory.
5. In each program, the input data (where it exists), should be output along with the
results. The numeric values output should be preceded by explanatory text.
6. Exceptions should be generated and exception handling code should be written
wherever necessary.
7. Some of the programs could become too long to complete in one lab session. The
instructor may, in that case supply a part of the program and ask the student to
complete it. The partly complete program could also contain deliberate errors, so
that the student debugs the program after completing its coding. The errors could
be syntactic as well as logical.
8. Classes should be properly encapsulated, so that the data structures are not
directly accessible from outside of classes.
9. Polymorphism and inheritance should be implemented wherever necessary.
Lab Programs
Perform at least Four practicals from programs 1-8 and at least FOUR from practicals
from programs 9-13.
1. Compute the factorial of an integer larger than 20, using the BigInteger (or similar) class.
The main() method should accept none, one or more integers from the keyboard, validate
that the input is non-negative and call a method that returns the factorial value. The result
should be output in main().
2. Create a class that represents a rectangle. The rectangle object could be created by specifying
either the (x,y) co-ordinates of its two diagonally opposite corners, or by specifying its
length and height and the (x,y) co-ordinates of its left and corner. The rectangle should be a
square if only one of the length or breadth are provided. By default, if no co-ordinates are

________________________________________________________________________
Prop. Syllabus Page 19 of 35 T.Y.B.Sc.Comp.Sc. Jan 2001
 provided, the rectangle should be a square of unit length with two edges along positive x and
y-axes.
Define methods for the following:
(i) That moves the rectangle to another position.
(ii) That changes either the length or breadth of the rectangle, or both.
(iii) That determines whether a point (x,y) lies within the rectangle.
(iv) That returns the largest rectangle that includes the defined rectangle and another.
(v) That returns the overlap between the defined rectangle and another.
Define another class that tests the above class.
3. Include sub-classes in the above rectangle class which do the following:
(i) Draws the rectangle on screen.
(ii) Draws the border of one colour and fills the rectangle with the same or another colour.
Define another class that tests the rectangle class and its subclasses.
4. Define a class that holds a complex number x+iy. Define no parameter, one parameter and
two parameter constructors for the class.
Code methods for the following.
That returns the real part of the number. That returns the imaginary part of the number. That
returns the modulus of the number. Returns the sum of two complex numbers. Returns the
difference between two complex numbers. Returns the product of two complex numbers.
Define a test class that checks the methods defined above.
5. Define a subclass that extends the FilterReader class. The sub-class removes all the Tags
from an HTML file to present plaintext output.
Define a test class for the above class. An exception should be thrown and handled if the
source file could not be found.
6. Define a subclass which extends the BufferedReader class. The sub-class filters out and
displays only those lines from a text file that contain a given character string. An exception
should be thrown and handled if number of command line arguments are not proper and if
the source file could not be found.
7. Define a class that copies a file to another, destination file with the following provisions:
If the destination is a directory, source file name should be used. If the destination file exists,
first ensure that it could be overwritten and then overwrite it only after operator permission
is received. If the destination file does not exist, ensure that the directory does and a file
could be written to it before copying.
Define a class to test out the program completely.
8. Define a class to read a file, compress it and output the compressed file as another file on
disk. The program should either compress a single file, or if the file parameter is a directory,
compress all files in the directory. Define a test class to demonstrate the program.
9. Define a class that enables the drawing of freehand lines on a screen through mouse clicking
and dragging. Use anonymous inner classes to implement event listeners. The drawing
should be cleared when a key is pressed and the line colour should be selectable. Define a
test class to demonstrate the program.
________________________________________________________________________
Prop. Syllabus Page 20 of 35 T.Y.B.Sc.Comp.Sc. Jan 2001
 10. Define a class that produces an applet, which performs a simple animation of moving a
coloured object (like a circle), on the screen. Demonstrate the screen animation.
11. Define a class that transforms a simple shape like a rectangle by translating, scaling, rotating
and shearing it. Demonstrate the class by a screen drawing.
12. Define a class that fills one shape by gradient fill, fills another with a tiling effect and still
another by a shadow effect. Demonstrate the class by a screen drawing.
13. Define a class that demonstrates anti-aliasing at the boundary between two colours.
Demonstrate the class by a screen drawing.

 Group I V

SSAD and OOAD Project

General guidelines for project performance evaluation:

The student is required to analyse design, code and implement an actual system. The
system could be implemented either as a traditional system, an event driven system,
object oriented system or as a databased system. The coding and implementation should
be in one of the languages/packages that are defined in the Computer Science syllabus of
either F.Y.B.Sc., S.Y.B.Sc. or T.Y.B.Sc.
The project shall be done individually by each student, though a project with the same
title could be given to more than one student.
A project guide should be assigned to students, who will generate a schedule for the
completion of each of the phases of the project and hand it over to the students under his
care before the 15th of July in the third year of the Computer Science course. It is highly
recommended that the colleges try and obtain the services for external project guides
who have working experience of managing projects. The guides should oversee the
project progress on a weekly or fortnightly basis.
The student will produce and maintain a Gantt chart from the given schedule. The actual
completion of each phase should also be noted on the chart. The chart shall be placed in
the project documentation immediately after the Certificate and separate marks are
assigned for completing each phase on time, as indicated by the Gantt chart during
project evaluation.
The minimal phases for the project are: Project search, finalisation and allocation.
Investigation system requirements. Data and Process Modeling. System Design. Program
design. Program coding and unit testing. System integration. System implementation and
acceptance testing.
The phases could be suitably modified if the waterfall paradigm is not used for project
development or if the project uses Object Oriented techniques. The project guide should
control iterations if any non-linear technique for project development, like prototyping, is
used. The design phase must finish in the first term so that coding and unit testing could
commence during the Diwali vacation. The project must be completed latest by 31st
January of the academic year.
The project must be periodically reviewed by the project guide, who should certify the
completion of each phase by affixing his signature on a table maintained for the purpose.
The date of the signature assumes importance in view of the marks assigned in evaluation
for completing each phase on time. A phase is deemed completed only when its
documentation is submitted and approved. The signed sheet should appear in the project
report after the Gantt cart.

________________________________________________________________________
Prop. Syllabus Page 26 of 35 T.Y.B.Sc.Comp.Sc. Jan 2001
Changes in the submitted documents are possible, as project development is essentially
an evolutionary process. The project guide must ensure that changes are necessary due to
the knowledge gained in succeeding phases of the project. The date of completion of a
phase should be brought forward if the changes made are deemed to be errors and not due
to additional knowledge gained from a succeeding phase.
The completed project must be reviewed in the in the month of February (or earlier) by
the project guide to ensure that it is correctly working. The project guide should affix his
signature on the certificate after the final review is conducted.
The certificate should minimally contain the following information.
• The fact that the student has successfully completed the project as per the syllabus,
and that it forms a part of the requirements for completing the B.Sc. degree in
Computer Science of University of Mumbai.
• The names of the student and the project guide.
• The academic year in which the project is done.
• Date of submission and final review of the project.
• Signature of the project guide and the head of department with date along with the
department stamp.
• Space for the signature of the University examiner and date on which the project is
evaluated.
The project report should contain the following system documentation (one copy for the
project).
• Organisational Overview
• Description of the present system.
• Limitations of the present system.
• The Proposed system – Its advantages and features.
• Context diagram of the proposed system.
• Top level DFD of the proposed system with at least one additional level of expansion.
• Structure Chart of the System.
• System flowchart.
• Menu Tree
• Program List.
• Files or Tables (for DBMS projects) list. Class names to be entered for each file in
OO systems.
• List of fields or attributes (for DBMS projects) in each file or table.
• Program – File Table that shows the files / tables used by each program and the files
are read, written to, updated, queried or reports were produced from them.
• Reports List with column headings and summary information for each report.
• System Coding and variable / file / table naming conventions.
• System controls and standards.
• Screen layouts for each data entry screen.
• Report formats for each report.

________________________________________________________________________
Prop. Syllabus Page 27 of 35 T.Y.B.Sc.Comp.Sc. Jan 2001
The project report should contain the following program documentation (one copy for
each program).
• Program id.
• Program level run chart.
• Program function explanation.
• Data entry screen (reproduced from system documentation).
• Report layout (reproduced from system documentation).
• Program level pseudocode or flowchart. Add decision tables, decision trees, tight
English explanation where necessary.
• Program listing.
• Test data.
• Test results.
The project shall be evaluated by the University examiner at the time of University
practical examinations. The system code should be available on a disk for evaluation
along with the project report. The examiner should critically evaluate whether the project
has been sufficiently tested by going through the test data and test results.
The student is expected to present and demonstrate the project to the University
examiner.
50 marks are allotted to the project, which shall be divided as under.
Project documentation 10 Marks.
Adherence to project schedule 10 Marks.
Project quality 10 Marks.
Demonstration of working project 10 Marks.
Project presentation 10 Marks.
The examiner may deduct 2 marks, up to a maximum of 10, from the 'Adherence to
project schedule' head for each schedule milestone that is missed by the student. The
examiner may deduct 5 marks from the 'Project quality' head if the test data and results
are not sufficiently exhaustive.

WEB DESIGN & APPLICATIONS

Important Note: The Web development is as much about creativity as about technology.
While teaching (as well as while evaluating the student performance) proper emphasis
should be given to each of the two aspects. The content creation is as much important as
the technical know-how. All the time, case studies based on good sites should be given as
illustrative examples while teaching this subject.

Topics that need to be covered in two papers:

1. Web design and implementation process.

2. Keep the user in mind.
3. Objectives of a specific site.
4. Design philosophy.
5. Consistency throughout the site.
6. Compatibility with different browsers.
7. Selecting proper server and Uploading the site.
8. Creating User Interface, Gathering information.
9. Providing data-base connectivity.
10. Site maintenance and updates.

Technologies Involved:

1. HTML & its extensions such as DHTML, XML etc.

2. Embedding Graphics, pictures, animation etc.
3. Embedding Java Applets.
4. Frames, Cascading Style-sheets.
5. Providing interactivity: Java Script, VB Script, Active Server Pages.
6. Audio & Video contents.
7. PERL CGI Script
8. FTP, TELNET etc.
