I tried mind mapping of "Design Patterns" by GoF.
Colors and shapes strongly stimulate the right hemisphere of the cortex, and support human memory capability.

In this experiment, I used a new feature of JUDE/Professional 3.1 which adds a name to a link(dashed line between topics) to illustrate relationships between the patterns.

Get an evaluation license(if you don't have one), and try JUDE/Professional.
