Pattern Oriented Software Architecture: Patterns for Resource Management
Prashant Jain, Michael Kircher
January 7, 2007, (Half Day - PM)
From embedded software in a mobile device to software in a large enterprise server, it is
important that resources, such as memory, threading, files, or network connections are
managed efficiently to allow the systems to function properly and effectively. In many
systems, the actual need for resource management is discovered late in the software
development lifecycle, at system-analysis or performance-analysis time. The design
techniques that must be used in implementing resource management in a system
depend largely upon the domain, the system constraints and requirements. A technique
that works well in a particular system or configuration may not be as effective in a
different system.
This tutorial uses design patterns to present techniques for implementing effective and
efficient resource management in a system. The tutorial is based on the third volume of
the POSA (Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture) series. The tutorial presents a
thorough introduction to resource management along with two case studies in which the
patterns are applied to the domains of ad hoc networking and mobile radio networks.
The presented patterns are…
