In re-engineering object-oriented legacy code, it is frequently useful to introduce a design pattern in order to improve specific non-functional requirements (e.g., maintainabili...
Although object-oriented programming techniques have evolved into an accepted technology with recognized benefits for software development, profound investigations of qualitative a...
Design patterns have been used in object-oriented frameworks such as the IBM San Francisco framework, Apple's Rhaspody, OpenStep, and WebObjects, and DIWB. However, few guide...
There is an undeniable demand to capture already proven and matured object-oriented design so that building reusable object-oriented software does not always have to start from scr...
Several decades of software engineering research confirm that effective reuse is the only realistic approach to meeting the ever-increasing demands on the software industry. Over ...
