Architectural-Patterns vs. Design-Patterns

[from Software Engineering Radio]

Architectural Patterns are concerned with strategic aspects of a system. They have a global impact on the whole implementation of a system.

Design Patterns are concerned with technical aspects of an implementation. They have a local impact on specific parts of the implementation of a system.

Architectural Patterns are on a higher level of abstraction than Design Patterns.
