Design pattern prediction techniques: A comparative analysis

There are many design patterns available in literature to predict refactoring. However literature gives a comprehensive study to evaluate and compare various design patterns so that quality professionals may select an appropriate design pattern. To find a technique which performs better in general is an undesirable problem because behavior of a design pattern also depends on many other features like pre-deployment of design pattern, structural, behavioral etc. we have conducted an empirical survey of various design pattern in terms of various evaluation software metrics. In this paper we have presented comparison of few design patterns on metrics basis.
