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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.

Transparent forwarding: First steps

TL;DR: This research extends the Smalltalk-80 system to send messages transparently to objects residing on remote machines to discuss two models for remote message sends and suggest areas for future research.

Smart pointers: they''re smart, but they''re not pointers

TL;DR: This paper evaluates how *seamlessly* smart pointers can replace raw pointers and presents the desired behavior of smart pointers in terms of the semantics of raw pointers that the smart pointers try to emulate.

The Service Configurator framework: an extensible architecture for dynamically configuring concurrent, multi-service network daemons

TL;DR: This framework uses object-oriented design techniques and C++ language features to enhance operating system mechanisms that provide inter-process communication, communication port demultiplexing, explicit dynamic linking, and concurrency.

An Object-Oriented Architecture for Constraint-Based Graphical Editing

TL;DR: Direct-manipulation graphics editors are useful tools for a wide variety of domains such as technical drawing, computer-aided design, application building, and music composition, but few domain-specific graphics editors have provided constraint-based specification and manipulation facilities.

There's more to menu systems than meets the screen

TL;DR: This paper presents a kit called EZWin, which provides many services common to implementing a wide variety of interfaces, described as generalized editors for sets of graphical objects.
