Wiley Series in Software Design Patterns
The WILEY SERIES IN SOFTWARE DESIGN PATTERNS is
designedtomeettheneedsoftoday’ssoftwarearchitects,developers,
programmers and managers interested in design patterns. Frank
Buschmann (Series Editor), as well as authors, shepherds and
reviewers work collaboratively within the patterns community to
strive for high-quality, highly researched, thoroughly validated,
classic works, which document accepted and acknowledged design
experience. Priority is given to those titles that catalog software
patterns and pattern languages with a practical, applied approach in
domains such as:
• Distributed systems
• Real time systems
• Databases
• Business information systems
• Telecommunications
• Organizations
• Concurrency
• Netvrorking
Books in the series will also cover conceptual areas of how to apply
patterns, pattern language developments and architectural/
component-based approaches to pattern-led software development.
