• Title: AHA! Strategies for Gaining Insights into Software Design
• Authors: Mary Shaw,
• Abstract summary: These patterns describe the strategies I use to find novel or unorthodox insights in the area of software design and research. The patterns are driven by inconsistencies between what we say and what we do, and they provide techniques for finding actionable insights to address these inconsistencies.

• Abstract: These patterns describe the strategies I use to find novel or unorthodox insights in the area of software design and research. The patterns are driven by inconsistencies between what we say and what we do, and they provide techniques for finding actionable insights to address these inconsistencies. These insights may help to identify research opportunities; they may stimulate critiques of either research or practice; they may suggest new methods.

  We take the lead in describing corresponding exploration scenarios, including underlying requirements and available exploration strategies. Our approach applies a reinforcement learning model to provide diverse suggestions for exploration strategies according to the exploration intent of users. A novel visual design for representing uncertainty in correlation patterns is integrated into our prototype system to support the proposed approach.
