API Design Patterns Adoption and Refactoring Catalog Update

We have been busy with our Interface Refactoring Catalog. We present the next seven refactorings in Workshop B of EuroPLoP 2024 taking place this week. The first eight interface refactorings were workshopped at EuroPLoP 2023; see our trip report.

The patterns that serve as targets of many of our refactorings are being used in industry and academia. A news item on the API Design Patterns website provides more information.

Our API design patterns book won the “Best Publication Award” 2023/2024 at their university OST – Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences. The jury praised the book for its practical relevance and international impact. We are very proud of this peer recognition!
