A Composite Design-Pattern Identification Technique
Marjan Heričko, Simon Beloglavec · 2005
This paper introduces a new technique for identifying composite design patterns from existing patternbased designs. We propose two pattern metrics: pattern coverage and overlapping that can help detect a composite pattern. The effective composite patterns reflect quality properties that are considered desirable in the solution for a given problem domain and selected programming paradigm. To identify appropriate candidates, we propose an assessment with a set of design metrics in addition to pattern metrics. The calibration of value intervals for metric scores is proposed with the intention of offering the designer the possibility of adjusting the technique for each individual type of software. In this paper, we present the steps required for detecting and identifying the suitable composite pattern candidates through pattern and design metric assessment.
