To paraphrase [http://developer.yahoo.com/ypatterns/about/ IAWiki], "'''Design Patterns are solutions to common problems'''.

Design patterns have been used in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_pattern_(computer_science) software engineering] for decades, and more recently for Web User Interface problems; see [http://developer.yahoo.com/ypatterns/ Yahoo! Design Pattern Library] and [http://osdpl.fluidproject.org/ Open Source Design Pattern Library].
