SURESOFT: Introduction to Design Patterns

As scientists, we don’t have to reinvent the wheel when it comes to software. Instead, we will make use of software design patterns that provide proven solutions for reoccurring problems. Applying design patterns will help us to achieve a higher application quality and raise the level of abstraction in documentation as well as communication with our colleagues. In this workshop, we will walk you through a code example and step by step add new features. Along the way, we will involve you in every design decision so that you have a good understanding of the pros and cons of our final solution. It is quite possible that we will come across some design patterns along the way.
