Design Patterns: A Resource for Reverse Engineering
Journal Title: International Journal on Computer Science and Engineering - Year 2010, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Design patterns are gaining popularity because they support odifiability and flexibility of designs. Design patterns are olutions to frequently recurring problems in design. Reverse engineering of source code primarily focuses on the software architecture. Understanding software architecture in terms of design patterns simplifies the process of identifying some key properties such as coupling, flexibility and maintainability. This paper presents a novel approach to extract design patterns sing structural metrics of object-oriented programs. It involves two steps. In the first step, structural metrics are tracted from the source code. In the second step, these etrics are matched with the properties of structural design patterns of ang-of-Four to identify a design pattern. Our approach is emonstrated by extracting design patterns from a Java rogram using our attern extraction tool.
