SSE658 - Design Problems and Solutions using JAVA

I will use this wiki for my Design Pattern's class.

The point of Design patterns is to improve existing code with widely tested set of rules and methodologies. It is a documented core of solution that has been applied successfully in different environments to solve problems that re-occurs in specific set of situations. The four patterns I will be using will be

- Decorator - Factory - Singleton - Command

Each has their advantages and disadvantages which will be discussed in my paper

For my first project I will first do research on each patterns. I will mostly use the contents from the Head First Design pattern book. I will outline each patterns and discuss the situation to use them in. After that I will use some code to illustrate my proficiency using them. I will also talk about wikispaces.com and how to use the site to update content and share information with my classmates.
