Abstract
The book is an introduction to the idea of design patterns in software engineering, and a catalog of twenty-three common patterns. The nice thing is, most experienced OOP designers will find out they've known about patterns all along. It's just that they've never considered them as such, or tried to centralize the idea behind a given pattern so that it will be easily reusable.

Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code

TL;DR: Almost every expert in Object-Oriented Development stresses the importance of iterative development, but how do you add function to the existing code base while still preserving its design integrity?
Journal ArticleDOI

Aspect-oriented programming

TL;DR: This work proposes to use aspect-orientation to automate the calculation of statistics for database optimization and shows how nicely the update functionality can be modularized in an aspect and how easy it is to specify the exact places and the time when statistics updates should be performed to speed up complex queries.

The unified modelling language reference manual

TL;DR: The Unified Modeling Language Reference Manual as discussed by the authors provides an excellent real-world guide to working with UML, from structured design methods of the '60s and '70s to the competing object-oriented design standards that were unified to create UML.

Galaxy: a comprehensive approach for supporting accessible, reproducible, and transparent computational research in the life sciences

TL;DR: Galaxy Pages are interactive, web-based documents that provide users with a medium to communicate a complete computational analysis and provide support for capturing the context and intent of computational methods.

Sketchpad: a man-machine graphical communication system

TL;DR: The Sketchpad system makes it possible for a man and a computer to converse rapidly through the medium of line drawings, and opens up a new area of man-machine communication.

A cookbook for using the model-view controller user interface paradigm in Smalltalk-80

TL;DR: A switch actuating device adapted for conjoint rotation with a rotatable assembly of a prime mover using a pair of sets of opposite surfaces to effect the axial movement of the switch operating means between its opposite positions.

Designing reusable classes

TL;DR: This paper describes what it is like to design systems in Smalltalk and how classes are developed so that they will be reusable.
Journal ArticleDOI

Skip lists: a probabilistic alternative to balanced trees

TL;DR: Skip lists as mentioned in this paper are data structures that use probabilistic balancing rather than strictly enforced balancing, and the algorithms for insertion and deletion in skip lists are much simpler and significantly faster than equivalent algorithms for balanced trees.
