Chapter 22. A Departing Thought
Nach dem Spiel ist vor dem Spiel German football wisdom
The German football adage above can be taken literally for this book: 'after the match is before the match.' In our departing thoughts we reflect briefly on our pattern language for distributed computing, and outline the upcoming steps and activities involved in continuing and completing the vision of Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture.
The pattern language we present in this book distills our own experience, and the experience of many experts around the world, in building distributed systems. We have seen the language behind the documented patterns applied to guide the development of many production distributed systems, ranging from industrial automation, telecommunication, and medical imaging, over Web-based e-commerce systems, to component and communication middleware. The intent of our language was twofold:
To provide an overview about, introduction to, guide through, and communication vehicle for the best practices and state-of-the-art in key areas of the construction of distributed software systems.
To connect many stand-alone patterns, pattern collections, and pattern languages from the existing body of literature that relate to, or are useful for, distributed computing, to form a single language that provides a consistent and coherent holistic view of the craft of building distributed systems.
Our language is still a work in progress, despite its length and broad coverage of relevant topics, ...
