Abstract
Object-oriented software patterns account for knowledge regarding a solution to a programming problem in a context. Software patterns are increas- ingly popular and consequently their numbers are growing. Under these circum- stances, it is a challenge for the pattern user to decide on which patterns to in- corporate into their design. In this paper, we describe a pattern decision analysis approach that provides pragmatic support to making this design decision.
