	Design Pattern Synopses
		The Filter pattern is a special case of the Decorator pattern, where a data source or data sink object is wrapped to add logic to the handling of a data stream.
		The Composite pattern also allows the objects in the tree to be manipulated in a consistent manner, by requiring all of the objects in the tree to have a common superclass or interface.
		The Flyweight pattern is often combined with the Composite pattern to represent the leaf nodes of a hierarchical structure with shared objects.

	The Elements of a Design Pattern
		One of the key benefits of a design pattern over a style guide or guideline document is the heavy emphasis on the context of use of each element in the library.
		Mentioning other patterns that interact with this one helps the designer understand what else they'll need to consider when they are putting their design together.
		Design patterns are a very powerful approach to getting the all the designers in the organization on the same page.

	Design pattern (computer science) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A design pattern isn't a finished design that can be transformed directly into code; it is a description or template for how to solve a problem that can be used in many different situations.
		Object-oriented design patterns typically show relationships and interactions between classes or objects, without specifying the final application classes or objects that are involved.
		Design patterns provide general solutions, documented in a format that doesn't require specifics tied to a particular problem.

	Exploring the Observer Design Pattern (Site not responding. Last check: )
		However, the definition of design patterns is often difficult to convey with any level of accuracy; as such, the concept warrants a brief examination of origin and history.
		In fact, the popularity of design patterns has given rise to the concept of anti-patterns, which are solutions that commonly worsen, rather than solve, the problem at hand.
		Design patterns are not specifically tied to a given language or development platform (although the GoF limited their examples to C++ and Smalltalk); the advent of the Microsoft.NET Framework provides a new opportunity and context to examine design patterns.

		Many design projects are confronted with similar problems that demand similar solutions.
		A design pattern is an abstraction of a solution for a particular class of problems.
		Design patterns solve specific design problems and make object-oriented designs more flexible and elegant, and ultimately reusable.

	Macromedia - Developer Center : Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software
		Design patterns can even improve the documentation and maintenance of existing systems by furnishing an explicit specification of class and object interactions and their underlying intent.
		Design patterns are not about designs such as linked lists and hash tables that can be encoded in classes and reused as is. Nor are they complex, domain-specific designs for an entire application or subsystem.
		The design pattern identifies the participating classes and instances, their roles and collaborations, and the distribution of responsibilities.

	datetime-design-pattern - Microformats
		This design pattern arose as a result of solving the practical need for human readable dates for hCalendar.
		Note: There are some accessibility issues [1] (http://www.webstandards.org/2007/04/27/haccessibility/) with Datetime Design Pattern, and concerns that its use could breach WCAG accessibility guidelines, that are being addressed as part of the abbr-design-pattern-issues discussion.
		Until then it is best to keep the datetime concept merely as a microformat design pattern, to be used in _actual_ microformats that have a demonstrated practical need.

	Design Patterns in AOP - Jan Hannemann 2002+
		Each pattern is comprised of a number of parts, including purpose/intent, applicability, structure, and sample implementations.
		A number of patterns involve crosscutting structures in the relationship between roles in the pattern and classes in each instance of the pattern.
		When the software design patterns were first identified, the sample implementations were geared to the current state of the art in object-oriented languages.

		Since the FCL builds on the strengths of Microsoft's experience with developing software libraries, one can assume that instances of design patterns found in the FCL are fairly appropriate usages of these patterns.
		This class serves as the endpoint for the request, and is responsible for populating the response buffer for that particular request.
		The Factory Method pattern is probably the most commonly found design pattern in the FCL.

	Patterns and Software: Essential Concepts and Terminology
		Design patterns are medium-scale tactics that flesh out some of the structure and behavior of entities and their relationships.
		Patterns aren't designed to be executed or analyzed by computers, as one might imagine to be true for rules: patterns are to be executed by architects with insight, taste, experience, and a sense of aesthetics.
		Design patterns may be employed both in the design and the documentation of a framework.

		Design patterns form a cohesive language that can be used to describe classic solutions to common object oriented design problems.
		By using design patterns to solve programming problems, the proper perspective on the design process can be maintained.
		These pattern discussions, except for the Null and Model-View-Controller patterns are adapted from the classic text, Design Patterns by Gamma, Helm, Johnson and Vlissides (Addison Wesley Longman, 1995.

	Design Patterns
		For example, several patterns in the GoF book that work well in Java or C++ are unneeded in languages with a more powerful OO approach; especially the creational patterns, which are very much to do with getting around the problems of constructors in C++, Java, C#, etc., not working just like any other method.
		Of course we customize patterns for our own internal use, but given a standard set of unit tests for a pattern, as long as your code passes those tests you are still considered to be using that pattern.
		This is a high honor, and reflects as well on all WikiZens interested in patterns, and on WardCunningham and his c2 wiki, devoted as it is (and as Ward is) to PeopleProjectsAndPatterns.

		Design Patterns is a modern classic in the literature of object-oriented development, offering timeless and elegant solutions to common problems in software design.
		Rather than approaching each design task out of context as an individual, isolated problem, the strategy is to study the task and identify the underlying design pattern most likely to be applicable, and follow the class structure outlined by that pattern.
		For each pattern, the book carefully presents the intent of the pattern, a motivating example, consequences of using that pattern, implementation considerations and pitfalls, sample code (C++ or Smalltalk), known uses of that pattern in real-world applications, and a list of related patterns.
