[jboss-dev] JBoss Software Patterns

Hello All, We are a group of students (six to be exact) currently working on an assignment of a course on Software Patterns which is part of our Master's Programme. The assignment involves the mining and evaluation of both architectural and design patterns from a non-trivial open source project. We have chosen JBoss for this assignment and have prepared a report which includes our research to understand the architecture of JBoss, description of relevant patterns and a brief evaluation at the end. The report itself is a result of four weeks of work, keeping in mind that all the students in the group also have two other courses to follow. Even though, the report is a work in progress, it contains all the important elements required for the assignment. We would be highly obliged if any (many) of you could take a quick look at the report and give us some feedback (positive as well as negative). Comments or suggestions regarding the amount of research done , our understanding of the architecture and pattern extraction / evaluation would be really helpful for us. If you cannot do so, we would really appreciate it if you could point us to some person (or group) who could help us. Best Regards, Cheri
