Facade   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22) In contrast, Facade defines a simpler interface to a subsystem, it doesn't add new functionality, and it is not known by the subsystem classes. Facade objects are often Singletons because only one Facade object is required. The intent of Facade is to produce a simpler interface, and the intent of Adapter is to design to an existing interface. home.earthlink.net /~huston2/dp/facade.html   (576 words)

Facade Pattern Facades are often implemented with containers, but the pattern is a specific sort of containership. Facade, on the other hand, exposes the interface of contained objects to the world, and the point of it is that this way clients don't have to be concerned with exactly which object in a subsystem they're dealing with. A facade is a semantic wrapper of existing objects, an extended form of the AdapterPattern. c2.com /cgi/wiki?FacadePattern   (592 words)

Facade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.umd.edu)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22) A facade (or façade) (IPA: [fəˈsɑd] or "fuh-SAHD") is generally the exterior of a building, especially the front, but also sometimes the sides and rear. In architecture, the facade of a building is often the most important from a design standpoint, as it sets the tone for the rest of the building. Many facades are historic, and local zoning regulations or other laws greatly restrict or even forbid their alteration. en.wikipedia.org.cob-web.org:8888 /wiki/Facade   (199 words)

Design Patterns: Session Facade A Session Facade is implemented as a session enterprise bean. Introducing a Session Facade, as shown in the "after" diagram in Figure 1, decreases network traffic and latency, because all access to fine-grained business objects is local. The facade is a stateful session bean because it stores information (such as the user id) that is specific to an individual user in the context of a session. java.sun.com /blueprints/patterns/SessionFacade.html   (598 words)

Facade Remodeling The facade is the face of a building, often demonstrating the use and value of the structure. The UI Administration Building is an example of a historical structure whose grand facade and stained glass windows identify its importance and significance to the University of Idaho. The relationship between building facade, sidewalk and street is a critical public space in the downtown area of a city or town. www.class.uidaho.edu /communityresearch/facade_remodeling.htm   (682 words)

Core J2EE Patterns - Session Facade When implementing the Session Facade, you must first decide whether the facade session bean is a stateful or a stateless session bean. A Session Facade is meant to be a highly coarse-grained abstraction of the workflow. Since the facade presents a coarse-grained access mechanism to the business components, this reduces the number of business components that are exposed to the client. java.sun.com /blueprints/corej2eepatterns/Patterns/SessionFacade.html   (3573 words)

Facade Pattern   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22) This is useful when backend API is not sufficiently stable to use as a client API.

facade concept from the Object Oriented Software Engineering knowledge base   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22) Create a special class, called a «Facade», which will simplify the use of the package. The «Facade» will contain a simplified set of public methods such that most other subsystems do not need to access the other classes in the package.

Grand Text Auto » A Few Façade Post-Release Comments   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22) The dramatic situation depicted in Facade is a delicate one which requires carefully nuanced interaction. Facade allows the player to bring their own goals with them, in your case that goal seemed to be to play it Zen and do nothing. While it’s true that Facade is designed to allow players the freedom to act in many different ways, and hopefully get rewarded and not punished for it (e.g., avoiding the responses like “you can’t do that” or “i don’t understand”), at the same time, we strive for there to be consistently believable behavior. grandtextauto.gatech.edu /2005/08/09/a-few-facade-post-release-comments   (4963 words)
