This report investigates the relationships between design patterns and programming languages. A comparison is carried out between the usual track of programming languages developme...
: Most of the study of patterns has been restricted to the composition of "new" patterns. These authors, however, believe that the investigation of design patterns is rip...
Software design patterns describe proven solutions to recurring software design problems. Knowledge of these patterns increases designers’ abilities, leads to cleaner and more e...
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...
The rapid evolution of Design Patterns has hampered the benefits gained from using Design Patterns. The increase in the number of Design Patterns makes a common vocabulary unmanag...
In restructuring legacy code it may be useful to introduce a design pattern in order to add clarity to the system and thus facilitate further program evolution. We show that aspec...
There has been substantial recent interest in captured design expertise expressed as design patterns. Prevalent descriptions of these design patterns suffer from two demerits. Firs...
Interfaces to information systems, and the buildings in which such systems are embedded will typically be the result of the work of a large number of different disciplines, potenti...
Since the publication of the Design Patterns book, a large number of design patterns have been identified and codified. Unfortunately, these patterns are mostly organised in an ad...
The concept of design patterns has recently emerged as a new paradigm in the context of object-oriented design methodology. Similar ideas are being explored in other areas of compu...
