We study the impact of design patterns on quality attributes in the context of software maintenance and evolution. We show that, contrary to popular beliefs, design patterns in pr...
This paper presents a graph transformation based approach to design pattern evolution. An evolution of a design pattern includes modifications of pattern elements, such as classes...
Software systems have to be flexible in order to cope with evolving requirements. However, since it is impossible to predict with certainty what future requirements will emerge, i...
