Pattern Research Domains Issue1 #369953 Pattern Researchers typically focus on their applications domain, where their heart lies. The first domains, where Christopher Alexander started, were architecture and the arts, and software, project management, organization development, education followed.
I (Helmut Leitner) expect at least 100 large application domains, and maybe 200 smaller one, containing 30.000+ pattern languages and 500.000+ patterns. This is an early estimate I did in 2012. |
