A visual tool for using design patterns as pattern languages

Proceedings of the International Conference on Advanced Visual Interfaces, 2010
Design patterns document successful solutions to recurrent problems in a specific software development domain. However, finding the patterns you need can be difficult, often requiring the designer to comprehend a long narrative description to understand the benefits, implications and trade-offs of each pattern and of its relationships with others.

Linguistic Incorporation: Patterns of Language Use

2009
The issue of language proficiency is central to the articulation of international migrants and their children within the social structures of the countries to which they have migrated. As Portes and Rumbaut (2006) argued forcefully in the above quotation, proficiency in the English language is a sine qua non of the possibility of living successfully in

Rewriting Natural Language Queries Using Patterns

2015
In this paper, a method based on pre-defined patterns, which rewrites natural language queries into a multi-layer, flexible, scalable and object-oriented query language, is presented. The method has been conceived to assist physicians in their search for clinical information in an Electronic Health Records system.

A pattern language for use cases specification

Proceedings of the 20th European Conference on Pattern Languages of Programs, 2015
Use cases describe a set of interactions between actors/users and the system under study. These interactions should be described textually according to some style and template to be simultaneously readable, consistent and verifiable. The main reason for these qualities is that use cases specification should be used both by business analysts and ...

Patterns of language learning strategy use

System, 2003
Abstract This study, conducted in a private language school in Auckland, New Zealand, investigated the relationship between course level and reported frequency of language learning strategy use by speakers of other languages. Employing the Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (SILL), the investigator found a significant relationship between ...

Patterns of parental language use in wales

Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 1991
This paper reports the language use of some 400 mothers in North Wales and their partners. The sample was divided into five types of couple, both mainly Welsh speaking, only father Welsh speaking, only mother Welsh speaking, both mainly English speaking, and couples where both have always used a mixture of Welsh and English.

A Pattern Language for Use Case Modeling

Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Model-Driven Engineering and Software Development, 2014
Use case driven software development typically starts with abstract problem domain descriptions of how the users see themselves using the system being developed, and entails a series of iterative refinement steps that incrementally detail the user stories/use case model, in order to bring those descriptions to the solution domain. This process tends to

Case study - using stil as test pattern language

International Test Conference, 2003. Proceedings. ITC 2003., 2004
This paper describes the implementation of a test pattern language using STIL [1], the IEEE Standard Test Interface Language (1450-1999), in a next generation, open architecture Automated Test Equipment (ATE) platform. The advantages of this approach in extensibility and easy interface with Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools for the ATE user are ...

Tokenizer for the Malay language using pattern matching

2014 14th International Conference on Intelligent Systems Design and Applications, 2014
Tokenization is a fundamental task focused on text processing. Among other tasks, the segmentation process is used to identify information units, such as sentences and words. In this paper, we discuss the Natural Language ToolKit (NLTK) tokenizer as a step to manipulate patterns within text.

Stimulus generation using the test pattern development language

[1991] Proceedings Fourth Annual IEEE International ASIC Conference and Exhibit, 2002
Stimulus generation is one of the more challenging tasks in IC design. The Test Pattern Development Language (TPDL) simplifies this process by guaranteeing that simulation patterns are correctly constructed for direct use by the tester. TPDL provides a generic interface which can be used on multiple platforms.
