Abstract

New approaches to the development of information systems, based on components reuse, are now preferred to traditional ones. In particular, pat- terns are among the most frequently “re-used” components in such approaches. Tools must be provided to applications developers to help them to use these patterns during the analysis, design and implementation of applications. In par- ticular, help must be given for the users to retrieve patterns corresponding to their problems. We present in this paper an experiment whose aims are to iden- tify the ability and the quality of the classical techniques provided by the infor- mation retrieval field in a pattern retrieval system. In this first attempt, we apply these techniques to a specific library of patterns: Gamma’s design patterns cor- pus, and we evaluate the results of this experiment in order to identify the spe- cific need of the user and the direction in which our patterns retrieval system should evolve.
