Design patterns provide a medium-grained ion and can be used as an effective tool for understanding object-oriented systems. This paper presents a simple tool for the extraction o...
Recovering design patterns can enhance existing source code analysis tools by bringing program understanding to the design level. This paper presents a new, fully automated patter...
When analyzing the evolution history of a software project, we wish to develop results that generalize across projects. One approach is to analyze design patterns, permitting char...
In this paper, we adopt a template matching method to detect design patterns from a software system by calculating their normalized cross correlation. Because design patterns docu...
