Levine CS 342: Patterns and Frameworks Introduction Dr. David L. Levine CS 342: Patterns and Frameworks Introduction Motivation for Patterns and Frameworks Overview of Patterns and Frameworks Patterns support reuse of software architecture and design Developing software is hard – Patterns capture the static and dynamic structures and Developing reusable software is even harder collaborations of successful solutions to problems that arise when Proven solutions include patterns and frameworks building applications in a particular domain Frameworks support reuse of detailed design and code – A framework is an integrated set of components that collaborate to provide a reusable architecture for a family of related applications. Together, design patterns and frameworks help to improve software quality and reduce development time – e.g., reuse, extensibility, modularity, performance Department of Computer Science 2 Washington University, St. Louis Department of Computer Science 3 Washington University, St. Louis Dr. David L. Levine CS 342: Patterns and Frameworks Introduction Dr. David L. Levine CS 342: Patterns and Frameworks Introduction Patterns of Learning Becoming a Chess Master First learn rules and physical requirements Successful solutions to many areas of human endeavor are deeply rooted in patterns – e.g., names of pieces, legal movements, chess board geometry and orientation, etc. – In fact, an important goal of education is transmitting patterns of learning from generation to generation Then learn principles Below, we’ll explore how patterns are used to learn chess – e.g., relative value of certain pieces, strategic value of center squares, power of a threat, etc. Learning to develop good software is similar to learning to play good chess However, to become a master of chess, one must study the games of other masters – Though the consequences of failure are often far less dramatic! – These games contain patterns that must be understood, memorized, and applied repeatedly There are hundreds of these patterns Department of Computer Science 4 Washington University, St. Louis Department of Computer Science 5 Washington University, St. Louis Dr. David L. Levine CS 342: Patterns and Frameworks Introduction Dr. David L. Levine CS 342: Patterns and Frameworks Introduction Becoming a Software Design Master Design Patterns First learn the rules Design patterns represent solutions to problems that arise when developing software within a particular context – e.g., the algorithms, data structures and languages of software – i.e., “Patterns == problem/solution pairs in a context” Then learn the principles Patterns capture the static and dynamic structure and collaboration – e.g., structured programming, modular programming, object among key participants in software designs oriented programming, generic programming, etc. – They are particularly useful for articulating how and why to However, to truly master software design, one must study the resolve non-functional forces designs of other masters Patterns facilitate reuse of successful software architectures and – These designs contain patterns must be understood, memorized, designs and applied repeatedly There are hundreds of these patterns Department of Computer Science 6 Washington University, St. Louis Department of Computer Science 7 Washington University, St. Louis Dr. David L.

Example Consider the design of a multi-tier, high-volume, on-line transaction processing (OLTP) system. In this design, front-end communication servers route transaction requests from remote clients, such as travel agents, claims processing centers, or point-of-sales terminals, to back-end database servers that process the requests transactionally. After a transaction commits, the database server returns its results to the associated communication server, which then forwards the results back to the originating remote client. This multi-tier architecture is used to improve overall system throughput and reliability via load balancing and redundancy, respectively.It LAN WAN Front-End Back-End Clients Communication Servers Database Servers also relieves back-end servers from the burden of managing different communication protocols with clients. © Douglas C.

  • The Need for Hardware/Software Codesign Patterns - a Toolbox for the New Digital Designer
    The need for Hardware/Software CoDesign Patterns - a toolbox for the new Digital Designer By Senior Consultant Carsten Siggaard, Danish Technological Institute May 30. 2008 Abstract Between hardware and software the level of abstraction has always differed a lot, this is not a surprise, hardware is an abstraction for software and the topics which is considered important by either a hardware developer or a software developer are quite different, making the communication between software and hardware developers (or even departments) difficult. In this report the software concept of design patterns is expanded into hardware, and the need for a new kind of design pattern, The Digital Design Pattern, is announced.

Parallelism - calculations or the execution of processes are carried out simultaneously. Concurrency allows for parallel execution. Robert Luko´ka Concurrency and Parallelism Concurrency and Parallelism Concurrency and Parallelism Concurrency is useful even without parallel computing (it makes sense to use more threads even if we have only one processor): Ecient allocation of resources - while a thread waits for something, another thread may be executed.

Gordon Summary The increasing prevalence of multicore, multiprocessor commodity hardware calls for server software architectures that are cycle-efficient on individual cores and can maximize concurrency across an entire machine. In order to achieve both ends this dissertation ad- vocates stage architectures that put software concurrency foremost and aggressive CPU scheduling that exploits the common structure and runtime behavior of CPU-intensive servers. For these servers user-level scheduling policies that multiplex one kernel thread per physical core can outperform those that utilize pools of worker threads per stage on CPU-intensive workloads. Boosting the hardware efficiency of servers in userspace means a single machine can handle more users without tuning, operating system modifications, or better hardware.
