Abstract: This paper presents an approach to detect behavioral design patterns from source code using static analysis techniques. It depends on the concept of Code Property Graph and enriching graph with relationships and properties specific to Design Patterns, to simplify the process of Design Pattern detection. This approach used NoSQL graph database (Neo4j) and uses graph traversal language (Gremlin) for doing graph matching. Our approach, converts the tasks of design pattern detection to a graph matching task by representing Design Patterns in form of graph queries and running it on graph database.

Keywords: Reverse engineering; source code analysis; design patterns; static analysis; graph matching; Gremlin; Joern; Neo4j
