TOWARDS A KNOWLEDGE BASE TO IMPROVE REUSABILITY OF DESIGN PATTERN

Abstract

In this paper, we propose to take directly into account the knowledge of experts during a design review activity. Such activity requires an ability to analyze and to transform models, in particular to inject design patterns. Our approach consists in identifying model fragments which can be replaced by design patterns. We name these fragments “alternative models” because they solve the same problem as the pattern, but with a more complex or different structure than the pattern. In order to classify and to explain the design defects of this alternative models base, we propose the concept of strong point. A strong point is a key design feature which permits the pattern to resolve a problem most efficiently.
