 Learning Outcomes

At the end of this module, you should be able to do the

following:
1. Explain the structure and operation of a range of different
design patterns.
2. Explain different design patterns in terms of the solutions
that they offer to a particular problem in a particular context.
3. Make a selection between candidate design patterns based
upon a rational critical evaluation of the different patterns
available for a particular environment.
4. Apply design patterns appropriately in realistic applications
using an object oriented programming language.
5. Critically evaluate an example implementation of design
patterns in a programming language.

 Synopsis

This module will introduce the concept of software design

patterns, and explore the wide variety of patterns that may
be applied to the production, analysis, design,
implementation, and maintenance of software. The format
of the module will emphasize the discussion of patterns
and their application. Each pattern will be discussed in
terms of its motivation, usefulness, and implementation,
with an emphasis on code examples and illustrations from
the standard libraries.
