}

Desighn pattern & Interection between them Needed

A mediator design pattern could be used here. 'AuctionSystem' class (and interface) could be the Mediator and 'Bidders' class (and interface) could be the colleagues.

1. AuctionSystem member functions -

MaintainProductList() //Basically an ArrayList or a hashMap with key as product Id and values as current bidders

AddBidders() //Add bidders to the productList bidding in a sorted order (to ease the query of topBidder) . Could use MaxHeap as well.

RemoveBidder(Bidder ID) // Remove and reheapify

UpdateBidder(Bidder ID, Long newValue) //To update the bidding value and re-organizing.

PublishBidResult(Product Id).

Optimisitc approach, all other operations can store the bidding values unsorted and whenever PublishBidResults() is called, heapify can be done to publish the top value.


2. Bidder class member functions could have

- makeBid( int Product Id, Long Value)

- Long getCurrentBidValue (int ProductId)
