Code implementing a crosscutting concern spreads over many parts of the Linux code. Identifying these code automatically can benefit both the maintainability and evolvability of Li...
A development task related to a crosscutting concern is challenging because a developer can easily get lost when exploring scattered elements of code and the complex tangle of rel...
Mechanisms in AOP (aspect-oriented programming) can be characterized by a JPM (join point model). AOP is effective in unanticipated software evolution because crosscutting concer...
This paper presents our extension to AspectJ for distributed computing. Although AspectJ allows Java developers to modularize a crosscutting concern as an aspect, this paper shows...
In the web services environment software development can involve writing both object-oriented programs and XML transformations. This can be seen in the popular Web Services archit...
— System software strongly relies on the availability of static as well as dynamic adaptation techniques. With AspectOriented Programming (AOP) it is now possible to adapt even p...
Aspects are defined as well-modularized crosscutting concerns. Despite being a core tenet of Aspect Oriented Programming, little research has been done in characterizing and measur...
Our analysis of crosscutting concerns in real-life software systems (totaling over 500,000 LOC) and in reports from literature indicated a number of properties that allow for thei...
Abstract. The separation of concerns is a fundamental principle in software engineering. Crosscutting concerns are concerns that do not align with hierarchical and block decomposit...
Many researchers claim that crosscutting concerns, which emerge in early software development stages, are harmful to software stability. On the other hand, there is a lack of effec...
