Abstract:

The rapid evolution of Design Patterns has hampered the benefits
gained from using Design Patterns. The increase in the number of
Design Patterns makes a common vocabulary unmanageable and
the tracing problem obscures the documentation that should be en-hanced
by using Design Patterns. We present an analysis of the
Design Patterns that will strongly reduce the number of Fundamen-tal
Design Patterns and show how strong language abstractions can
solve the tracing problem and thereby enhance the documentation.
