San Francisco design patterns, blueprints for business software (book/ CD)

The definitive guide to patterns discovered by IBMs breakthrough SanFrancisco Java project.

• Using and extending SanFrancisco patterns within typical business applications.
• Introduces foundational, behavioral, structural, process, and dynamic behavioral patterns.
• A great hands-on primer on patterns!

IBMs SanFrancisco is a Java-based set of pre-constructed components that help developers quickly assemble server-side business applications. In developing SanFrancisco, IBMs Java developers discovered a wide range of patterns that are invaluable to all Java developers. This book documents them, in-depth. It follows the format used in the groundbreaking book Design Patterns. Beginning with a case study describing a typical set of business requirements for a hypothetical enterprise, successive chapters address each design pattern in turn, using an aspect of the case study to provide a concrete example that motivates the pattern. The patterns fall into five categories: foundational, behavioral, structural, process, and dynamic behavioral patterns. While some of them extend patterns originally identified elsewhere, many are entirely new -- and all of them offer powerful opportunities for more effective development.

James Carey and Brent Carlson are Senior Software Engineers at IBM Software Group in Rochester, MN. Carlson has worked on IBMs SanFrancisco project since 1995. Tim Graser is a software engineer for IBM. For three years, he has played a key role in defining the SanFrancisco programming model and the design patterns covered in this book.
