It is usually assumed that the implementation of exception handling can be better
modularized by the use of aspect-oriented programming (AOP). However, the trade-offs …

Object-oriented frameworks are nowadays a common and useful technology used in the
implementation of software system families. Despite their benefits, over the last years many …

An architectural aspect is a concern that cuts across architecture modularity units and cannot
be effectively modularized using the given abstractions of conventional Architecture …

Many of the problems that stem from the use of exception handling are caused by the local
way in which exceptions are handled. It demands that developers understand the source of …

Software measures are often used to assess program comprehension, although their
applicability is discussed controversially. Often, their application is based on plausibility …

Abstract Architecture description languages are a sound and convenient approach to
software architecture representation. The majority of well-known ADLs provide separation of …

Manifestation of crosscutting concerns in software systems is often an indicative of design
modularity flaws and further design instabilities as those systems evolve. Without proper …

The potential of aspect-oriented programming to represent cross-cutting concerns as
reusable components has yet to be fully realized. Indeed, authors have detailed significant …

Through AspectJ, aspect-oriented programming (AOP) is becoming of increasing interest
