  Kids.net.au - Encyclopedia Design pattern (computer science) -
Design patterns are lessons that have been accumulated in the community of computer programming.
A design pattern is an abstraction of the best solutions for a particular class of problems.
It is important that patterns accompany a name because it makes possible to describe problems, solutions and talk about them with other folks.

 Steve MacDonald - Publications by Date
The first reason is that design patterns describe a set of solutions to a family of related design problems and it is difficult to generate a single body of code that adequately solves each problem in the family.
Patterns are implemented as parameterized templates, allowing the user the ability to customize the pattern to meet their needs.
S tool addresses extensibility by giving users the ability to design and add new pattern templates to CO Since the patterns are stored in a system-independent format, they are suitable for storing in a repository to be shared throughout the user community.

 SENG 609.04 Design Patterns: Bridge Pattern
The intent of the Bridge pattern is to "Decouple an abstraction from its implementation so that the two can vary independently." (Gamma, 1995, pg 151) This means that the bridge pattern provides a separation of some or all of an abstractions interface from the abstraction itself.
The Bridge pattern is motivated by the the desire to separate the interface, and subsequently the implementation of the interface, from an abstraction.
The Adapter pattern is used to convert or remap interfaces, which "lets classes work together that couldn't otherwise because of incompatible interfaces." (Gamma, 1995, pg 139) The Adapter pattern has two general forms, a class adapter, and an object adapter.

 Design Patterns: Solidify Your C# Application Architecture with Design Patterns -- MSDN Magazine, July 2001
A design pattern is a description of a set of interacting classes that provide a framework for a solution to a generalized problem in a specific context or environment.
One other advantage to this pattern is that creation of the singleton can be delayed until it is actually needed, as shown in Figure 1.
This promotes extensibility in that additional algorithms can be developed and plugged in seamlessly, as long as they follow the base interface specification, thereby allowing algorithms to vary dynamically.

 Dave Orchard's Blog: Protocol Extensibility and Versioning
I've argued for a while now that extensibility and versioning are important topics, and it's incredibly important for data formats to plan for evolvability.
In the format extensibility case, the format processor has to be prepared to rollback any work that it has done on the message when it encounters an unknown mandatory extension.
I know that the factory pattern is specifically for construction, and I'll argue that creating a representation based upon a requested type is implicitly a constructor as a representation is a time sample of a resource.

 PLoP '96 Call for Papers
Patterns form a language when woven together to provide a sequence or a process for the orderly resolution of problems.
Once expressed in pattern form, solutions may be recast in new contexts to facilitate the widespread reuse of (micro-)architecture, detailed designs, algorithms, implementations, and organization structures.
Patterns might be so specific as to name particular objects, interface elements or implementation structures in a solution.

 WS-MessageDelivery Version 1.0
A composite pattern is a message exchange pattern that is composed of one or more well defined patterns in WSDL that define a logical unit of exchange.
Although the request-response pattern in WSDL 1.1 may be used in conjunction with an asynchronous transport and hence binding, it is impossible to ensure the usage of two different bindings (such as SOAP/HTTP and SMTP) by utilizing the request-response pattern directly to implement a callback pattern.
Note that it is possible to use an In-Out pattern in conjunction with asynchronous binding/transport instead of the Callback composite pattern (as mentioned in 5 CallBack Pattern in the context of WSDL 1.1).

 E++: A pattern language for J2EE applications, Part 1
The whole set of patterns for a specific application domain, together with their structuring principles, becomes a high-level language and a design method for the domain that accompanies the software life cycle.
In contrast to the GOF taxonomical approach, we'll look at patterns with a pattern language for creating a J2EE framework with the hope that a pattern approach would be more useful for designers and more understandable for developers.
The pattern language provides an organization of the decision sequences that generated the framework design, and these must be understood in their proper context by the developer when making new decisions regarding which classes and collaboration structures to add to the framework.

 XML.com: Versioning XML Vocabularies
A fundamental requirement for extensibility is to be able to determine the language of elements and attributes.
For XML Schema applications, the extensibility point SHOULD be an element that allows for extension in the target namespace and a wildcard that allows for extension in any other namespace.
Extensibility is one step toward this goal, but achieving compatibility also requires a processing model for the extensions.

 Patterns for Concurrent, Parallel, and Distributed Systems
This pattern simplifies event-driven applications by integrating the synchronous demultiplexing of events and the dispatching of their corresponding event handlers.
This pattern increases the flexibility and extensibility of applications by enabling their constituent services to be configured at any point in time.
The intent of this pattern is to decouple (1) active and passive connection establishment and service initialization from (2) the processing the two endpoints of a service perform once they are connected and initialized.

CQL is a pattern grammar formalism that is stripped down in such a way that queries within CQL may be compiled into a FSA.
A set of separate document queries, including their context, may be combined into one pattern grammar and therefore may be compiled into one (deterministic) FSA.
The sole mechanism for the creation of reports are the notations for Signals and Reports which indicate precisely a location in the document (be it implemented as a filepointer, a pointer in a Dom or in a document tree).

 The Bridge Design Pattern
The most obvious consequence of the Bridge pattern is the decoupling of the implementation from the interface.
The other consequence of the Bridge pattern includes the improved extensibility of classes and the additional capability for hiding implementation details from clients.
The extensibility is improved because additional refined abstractions can be created without the need for adding any additional implementations.

 2 Problem: Order hampers extensibility   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
One of the main problems that hampers software extensibility is that uses of components have a fixed view how to access subcomponents.
When object types in intermediate data structures of compilers are extended by new fields, all pattern matches on the type have to be updated.
This is not only annoying, but a severe source of bugs, especially in tools that support wildcard patterns, because with wildcards the number of subpatterns cannot be checked on completeness anymore.

 Extending and Versioning XML Languages with XML Schema
Extensibility allows authors to change instances without going through a centralized authority, and may allow the centralized authority greater opportunities for versioning.
A final comment on XML Schema extensibility is that there is still the unmet need for the ability to define schemas that validate known extensions while retaining extensibility.
Leaving the topic of wildcard extensibility, the use of type extension over the web might be more palatable if the instance document could express a base type if the consumer does not understand the extension type, as in xsi:basetype=””.

 Factory Pattern: Extensibility Question - GameDev.Net Discussion Forums
Factory Patterns, for example, are said to improve extensibility because object creation is centralized and therefore you don't have to worry about other parts of the code when you add new types.
The only case that came into my mind is that when using a newer derived component and prefering it over the "obsolte" component it can be convenient having the construction code in one place because you'd only have to change the constructor call of the new type once - in the factory.
The creational pattern in MC++ is the Abstract Factory pattern, which is different.

 bLOGical
This schema design pattern is ideally suited, as it allows each member of the team to work and publish independently.
The power of this design pattern is that it empowers each person to independently describe the Yangtze river with no limitats on the vocabulary (i.e., the XML tags) that is employed to describe the River (rather, the vocabulary must all belong to the http://www.geodesy.org/river namespace).
As we have seen, this Web-oriented (eXtreme eXtensibility) XML Schema design pattern is useful whenever there is a desire to grow a body of information, especially when you want to grow a body of data in a distributed fashion.

The abstraction and the implementation should be extensible through subclassing and changes to the implementation should not impact clients.
These implementations are effectively hidden from the client, allowing the client to focus on just the behavior desired from the abstraction.
The bridge pattern is very similar with the Adapter pattern.

 Info Bite - Will Atom not have a "link" element?
The current Atom spec defines a "Link Construct" which itself is not a specific XML element, but provides a pattern which actual elements can follow.
If the link element were replaced with multiple elements, each possibly following a slightly different pattern, that extensibility path would be lost.
It occurred to me yesterday that if all elements containing an href attribute (for example) were REQUIRED to be Link Constructs, then link extensibility could still be achieved without having to shoe-horn everything into the link element.

There are specifications of the IR in Hoof format and an ASDL of the IR, but when programming many of us believe that nothing can replace the actual programming language specific interface.
However, there are a LARGE number of methods in these interafaces because of the particular extensibility mechanism that we use and the interface can appear daunting at first.
