DIGEST: Additional Info on SW Design / Architecture - Further Reading

About SW Design / Architecture (and security as well as performance, quality attributes of architectures):

• The VAP info can be found online here (PDF). 

Security topic and the embedded link to the Check List repository:

Additional info on Design Patterns, Code Smells, Refactoring (already shown but repeated here for reinforcement or whatever you would like me to call it): 

1. Design patterns: "The index" in Wikipedia is here. 
2. Several books to read, also called "bibles": The GOF book as well as Code Complete 2. 
3. Another interesting resource is sourcemaking.com (Design Patterns, Anti-Patterns and Refactoring / Code Smells).

Performance (but not only) topic:  

• Performance (and architecture that drives/enables this performance): http://www.javaperformancetuning.com/
