General talk about software patterns

["Christian Kruschitz" <christian.kruschitz AT gmail.com>]

Maybe this would be interesting for you. I will try to develop a framework which helps to formalize and sharing HCI patterns.

This is just in a early stage but this can be very helpful to the HCI community.

 

I have presented this approach at CHI 2009.

 

ABSTRACT

In this paper we describe an approach to formalize and unify Human-Computer-Interaction (HCI) design patterns. The goal is to help pattern authors, users, and software engineers to work more efficiently with design patterns. To this end, we have investigated seven building blocks for setting up a unified form of HCI design patterns. They will serve as the necessary requirements for successful integration into the Semantic Web, pattern management tools, and the HCI community.

If anyone is interested in the full paper please let me know and drop me a message.

Thanks Christian!  That's quite a list.  The UI community certainly has many repositories.

Yes, we often talk about how to federate or amalgamate them more effectively, and there's been some talk about really finishing PLML to enable better sharing and interoperability among repositories.

 

List:  What others are out there???

Yes, please! I hesitated to post my list up-front as I know we are just one small sector of the greater patterns community.
