Abstract

In this paper, we present a design pattern called Virtual Interface Machine to tackle relative problems in software design and describe its application in our network intrusion detection system. We point out the main drawbacks of the present design pattern about decoupling and efficiency of development. Virtual Interface Machine could let us easily separate UI from logic layer, decouple components of UI entirely and enjoy efficiency of RAD in UI design without compromising reusability and maintainability of the whole design. By thorough decoupling, we could even change both the logic layer and UI at run time, which is impossible on other patterns.
