PATTERN MINING PROCESS

Pattern completeness Sketchy
PATTERN Category
  • COMPOSTABILITY
summary Use simplified pattern mining process as quick start to identify key elements in a design
Argumentation
  • 0. source material
  • 1. identify candidate information grains : Identify key tangible of intangible elements and give them a short and explicit name
  • 2. create file for the grain
  • 3. tweak the name to make it explicit (PATTERN NAME)
  • 4. add pattern description, reuse content if possible (FREE LICENCE) and reference
  • 5. check if patterns is not granular enough and contains smaller sub-patterns
  • 6. create sub-patterns as needed and go back and forth to adjust content between patterns

we aimed to identify relevant ingredients and brievely describe them so as to keep these in mind as we went through our design, yet keeping each of them with an APPROPRIATE GRANULARITY.

Note : Alexander's patterns always included both tangible elements (physical architectures such as building or cities) and intangible elements (the culture of people inhabiting the building/city or the psychological the architecture has on them). However people new to patterns languages usually focussed only on the tangible elements that are more easy to grasp and often overlooked the intangible aspects of the patterns. so we made these articificial division to make it more obvious to readers that are new to pattern languages that patterns not only deal with physical elements but also non physical elements.
