This paper explores and discusses the application of pattern decomposition and interaction design approach in pattern layout design. First we introduce a Pattern Decomposition Representation Model (PDM). In this model, the reusable parts of a pattern are extracted as pattern primitives. At the meantime, a module separated from pattern primitives is defined by the abstract structure of the pattern. Next, the interaction design approach based on the design context and the knowledge-based promotion is proposed and the implementation is presented at the end.
