Modeling four aspect-oriented programming mechanisms shows the way in which each supports modular crosscutting. Comparing the models produces a clear three part characterization of...
Separation of concerns is a fundamental software engineering principle that proposes the encapsulation of each matter of interest in a separate module. Software engineering develop...
There is a growing consensus that crosscutting concerns harm code quality. An example of a crosscutting concern is a functional requirement whose implementation is distributed acro...

Abstract. Aspect-oriented systems claim to improve modularity by providing explicit mechanisms that allow modularization of concerns which crosscut the object-oriented decompositio...
Crosscutting concerns are software system features whose implementation is spread across many modules as tangled and scattered code. Identifying such code helps developers to chan...
