Abstract

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 unmanageable, and the tracing problem obscures the documentation that should be enhanced by using Design Patterns. We present an analysis of Design Patterns that will strongly reduce the number of Fundamental Design Patterns and show how strong language abstractions can solve the tracing problem and thereby enhance the documentation.

Design patterns: abstraction and reuse of object-oriented design
Software pioneers

We propose design patterns as a new mechanism for expressing object-oriented design experience. Design patterns identify, name, and abstract common themes in object-oriented design. They capture the intent behind a design by identifying objects, their ...
Ontology driven creational design patterns: creating objects on the fly
RACS '13: Proceedings of the 2013 Research in Adaptive and Convergent Systems

We have explored the use of a generic ontology component to separate and encapsulate the design pattern logic of the GoF creational design patterns. We used a unique generic ontology as a runtime component in the creational patterns and then analyzed ...
