What is Front-End and Back-End

Handbook of Research on Engineering Education in a Global Context
Terms in software engineering, which are distinguished according to the principle of shared responsibility between external representation and internal implementation, respectively. Front-end interaction interface between the user and the main software and hardware (back-end). Front-end and back-end can be distributed across one or more systems. In software architecture there may be many levels between the hardware and the end user, each of which may also have front-end and back-end. Front-end is an abstraction that provides a user interface.

Abstract
This chapter suggests a method for practicum on software engineering methodology course using a project-oriented approach. The chapter features basic organization principles of the approach and examples of methodical support for laboratory works based on these principles, and provides recommendations on choice and use of methodologies and technologies of software engineering for the development of distributed information systems. The experience of using this technique for teaching students studying for a Master's degree in Software Engineering in Bauman Moscow State Technical University is presented.
