Abstract

The software pattern is knowledge representation derived from the verified solutions or the experience of the experts. On account of the design varieties of software development, however, it is not the facilitated task to discover the best proper software pattern. This situation requires that software patterns be categorized in terms of their innate concepts. This paper proposes software pattern ontology(SPO) for the systematic categorization of software patterns by means of conceptual properties of patterns after the comparative analysis of association between software pattern and ontology. The SPO presented in this paper can establish the basis for the software pattern management system at the conceptual level. This paper also shows an idea for the application by unifying conceptual properties of software pattern and ontology. 

소프트웨어 패턴은 전문가의 검증된 해법과 경험을 토대로 한 문제 해결의 지식표현이다. 그러나, 소프트웨어 개발 문제의 다양성으로 인하여, 현재 발표되어져 있는 수많은 소프트웨어 패턴들 중에서 최적의 패턴을 선택하여 활용하는 것이 용이하지 않다. 이러한 상황은 소프트웨어 패턴의 개념 범주화를 요구하고 있다. 본 논문은 소프트웨어 패턴과 온토로지의 개념 구조를 비교 분석하여, 소프트웨어 패턴이 표출하는 개념 특성을 체계적으로 조직화할 수 있는 소프트웨어 패턴 온토로지(SPO)를 제시하였다. 본 논문에서 제시한 SPO로 소프트웨어 패턴을 개념 수준에서 관리할 수는 기반을 구축할 수 있다. 또한, 본 논문에서는 소프트웨어 패턴과 온토로지 개념을 결합하여 응용할 수 있는 방법을 예시하였다.
