Design Patterns — Ten Years Later

  • First Online:
Software Pioneers

Abstract

Design patterns have changed the way software developers design object-oriented systems. Rather than rediscovering solutions to recurring design problems over and over again, developers can now refer to a body of literature that captures THE best practices of system design. This article looks back to where design patterns came from, shows design patterns in action, and provides an overview of where patterns are today.
