Abstract
This paper presents the motivations, design, outcomes, and lessons
learned from a long series of project-oriented courses. The project is
chosen to be similar to real industry projects and with a technical
content that is at the senior or master level. The students will in the
course follow the project from the initial requirement specification to
a product during one semester. The first half of the semester also
includes a traditional distributed systems course, but the second half
is solely devoted to the project. The time each student is supposed to
spend on actual project work is 15 effort weeks which, since the project
involves between 15 and 20 students, means that up to 7 effort years are
spent on the project by final year computer science students
