Abstract: Microservices architecture offers theoretical benefits for software maintainability, yet empirical validation of design patterns’ effectiveness for enhancing modifiability remains limited, ...

For a long time, the architectural world seemed convinced that the only way to make a building feel healthy was to cover it in actual plants. The star of healthy architecture was the living building.

Define an interface for creating an object using the Factory Method Pattern, but let subclasses decide which class to instantiate. This creational design pattern lets a class defer instantiation to ...

The universe often demands inventions that balance elegance with function. Engineers design spacecraft parts to be compact during launch yet expansive when deployed. Surprisingly, inspiration for this ...

Abstract: Cross-reality is an emerging research area concerned with systems operating across different points on the reality-virtuality continuum. These systems are often complex, involving multiple ...

Twenty-three years ago, in his Design Principles and Design Patterns article, Robert "Uncle Bob" Martin boiled down the Liskov substitution principle to the idea that "derived classes should be ...
