This document explores the necessity of creating a pattern library specifically for restaurant chains. It discusses the business case by outlining realistic goals, identifying potential users such as servers and supervisors, and highlighting benefits like improved service and efficiency. It also addresses the costs of design, creation, and maintenance. Key features of the library and specific patterns to be included, such as managing noise levels and handling service delays, are examined. A comprehensive planning document with individual course plans and design proposals will be included.

Practical perspective • What is the business case for creating a pattern library in a particular setting? • What are realistic goals? Who might use it? What benefits? • What would be the cost in time and effort for design, creation, and ongoing maintenance? • What would be the design features of the library and patterns?
Pattern library for restaurant chain • Servers? Supervisors? Trainers? How used? • What scope? What issues? • Design of library? Design of patterns?
Pattern library for restaurant chain: Possible patterns • Dealing with a noisy table • What to do when you have too many tables • The bus person isn’t doing their job • Food is coming up slow.
Individual course plans • Within next few days, you will establish a tentative work plan, based on the credits you’ve signed up for • Suggestions: Complete planning document for a hypothetical pattern library. Prove that you understand all the contextual issues and how to design and plan for it. Provide a design for library and some sample patterns. • Create a portfolio item?
Pattern Project • Propose a real or imaginative situation in which you will be creating a pattern language that does not directly duplicate any existing language • Stipulate the domain, setting, goals, audience, likely size (with a sampling of titles), and several sample patterns • Discuss your design process—with due attention to choices you rejected
