Abstract: A software design pattern provides a proven solution to a problem that commonly occurs in software design. It provides a solution for solving a problem and can be applied in many different situations. Design patterns allow designers to reuse successful design. Selecting an appropriate design pattern is however a difficult task, especially for novice designers. In order to apply a pattern to a given problem context, a designer necessarily understand not only a problem domain but also the usage and structure of the pattern. To facilitate pattern selection, we construct a pattern usage hierarchy, based on which a problem-driven framework for recommending design patterns is developed. The characteristics of tasks to be performed in a given problem and examples of pattern usage are used for retrieving user intention and for matching the problem with an appropriate pattern. A preliminary evaluation of the pattern usage hierarchy reveals that we should provide a mechanism to facilitate pattern selection based on the hierarchy. A text classification approach is applied for suggesting the first-level category to users. Even when a first-level category is determined, it is still often difficult to consider which design pattern should be applied to a given problem. The features of pattern usage description are constructed and represented in terms of key-phrases. The key-phrases can reduce the difficulty of pattern selection of predetermined categories. Groups of key-phrases are constructed from their characteristics to improve the simplicity of key-phrase selection. Cosine similarity are used for calculating the recommended patterns. The evaluation results show a significant improvement of pattern selection process using a key-phrase approach
