patternS of Enterprise Application Architecture is written in direct response to the stiff challenges that face enterprise application developers. The author, noted object-oriented designer Martin Fowler, noticed that despite changes in technology--from Smalltalk to CORBA to Java to .NET--the same basic design ideas can be adapted and applied to solve common problems. With the help of an expert group of contributors, Martin distills over forty recurring solutions into patternS. The result is an indispensable handbook of solutions that are applicable to any enterprise application platform

Design patternS began to be recognized more formally in the early
1990s by Helm (1990) and Erich Gamma (1992), who described patternS
incorporated in the GUI application framework, ET++. The culmination of
these discussions and a number of technical meetings was the publication of
the parent book in this series, Design patternS -- Elements of Reusable
Software, by Gamma, Helm, Johnson and Vlissides.(1995). This book,
commonly referred to as the Gang of Four or “GoF” book, has had a powerful
impact on those seeking to understand how to use design patternS and has
become an all-time best seller. We will refer to this groundbreaking book as
Design patternS, throughout this book and The Design patternS Smalltalk
Companion (Alpert, Brown and Woolf, 1998) as the Smalltalk Companion.
Recent work by Petricoin and Liotta and co-workers (Petricoin et al. Use of proteomic patternS in serum to identify ovarian cancer. Lancet. 2002 Feb 16 359(9306):572-7. PMID: 11867112) has generated a lot of excitement and controversy. This example shows some ways that MATLAB can be used to read, visualize, pre-process (base-line correction, resample) and classify the data. The data can be downloaded from
