A Recommendation System to Support Design Patterns Selection

Pattern languages might be useful tools for design as far as designers can identify the right patterns. For this users need to understand the relationships between patterns and how to combine them. In this process, knowing how patterns have been used by other designers might help in identifying the best combination of solutions. In this paper we propose a module that recommends patterns based on the selection already made by them, with a view to supporting designers in making the correct design decisions.
