This title is dedicated to documenting design patterns only. Because most of the patterns in this catalog were specifically created in support of service-orientation, there are many cross-references to design principles whenever they are related or relevant to a particular pattern. These design principles are covered separately in SOA Principles of Service Design, a companion guide for this book.
