Abstract
Some people implement pattern and best practices without analyzing its
efficiency on their projects. Consequently, our goal in this article is to
convince software developers that it is worth to make an earnest effort to
evaluate the use of best practices and software patterns. For such purpose, in
this study we took a concrete case system for geographical locations inputs
through user interfaces. Then, we performed a comparative study on a
traditional method against our approach, named reverse logistic to retrieve
results, by measuring the time that a user spends to perform actions when
entering data into a system. Surprisingly, we had a decrease of 59% in the
amount of time spent in comparison to the time spent on the traditional method.
This result lays a foundation for feeding data from the typical final step and
search based on string matching algorithms, speeding up the interaction between
people and computer response
