Explanation

TOGAF defines an Architecture Pattern as a way of putting building blocks into context to describe a reusable solution to a recurring problem. Patterns capture proven, repeatable combinations of Architecture Building Blocks (ABBs) that have been validated in practice. Option A describes interface specifications, which are part of Architecture Definitions. Option C describes a Solution Building Block (SBB) or capability. Option D describes an artifact or work product. Option E describes a specific implementation-level Solution Building Block, not a pattern.
