Despite vast interest in design patterns, the specification and application of patterns is generally assumed to rely on manual implementation. We describe a precise method of spec...
Given the rapid rise of model-driven software development methodologies, it is highly desirable that tools be developed to support the use of design patterns in this context. This...

Increasing reuse opportunities is a well-known problem for software designers as well as for hardware designers. Nonetheless, current software and hardware engineering practices h...
Evidence suggests that as software ages the original realizations of design patterns remain in place, and participants in design pattern realizations accumulate “grime” – no...
The AnyInformationHiding design pattern models the concept of information hiding and the interactions between parties associated with it in any application. Information hiding is ...
