Is there a recommended development process associated with the use of patterns?
Probably so, but even though we discuss it a lot, we don’t know what it is. Use patterns so we can find out. • Does the use of patterns have any effect on business practices and software economics? Same answer. • Wouldn’t it be more useful to teach people to write patterns rather than teaching them to use a bunch of existing patterns? Both are needed. Neither is more needed. • How can we institutionalize the use of patterns where I work? Common recommendations include: • Mine the best code you have for patterns. • Extend design documentation and review practices to also deal with design patterns. • Run courses on the use of existing design patterns. • Review existing patterns in a writer’s workshop. • Use a pattern-based style template for documenting designs, so they can evolve into patterns. • Form a study group, and meet once a week to talk about patterns. Once there is a body of enthusiasts, they can press for institutionalization. • Why aren’t Alexander’s patterns universally used
