  Abstract:  Software design patterns are well-known and frequently reused micro-architectures: they provide proved solutions to design recurring problems with certain contexts. In restructuring legacy code it is useful to introduce a design pattern in order to add clarity to the system and thus facilitate further program evolution. That is why the problem of design patterns identification is very important. Automating the detection of design pattern instances could be of significant help to the process of reverse engineering large software systems. The aim of this paper is to introduce a new search based approach for identifying instances of design patterns in a software system. We provide an experimental evaluation of our approach, emphasizing its advantages.
