Research into the cognitive aspects of programming originated in the study of professional
programmers (whether experts or students). Even" end-user" programmers in previous …

Developers of modern software systems are often required to build software that addresses
security, fault-tolerance and other dependability concerns. A decision to address a …

The code that provides solutions to key software requirements, such as security and fault-
tolerance, tends to be spread throughout (or cross-cut) the program modules that implement …

Research into the cognitive aspects of programming originated in the study of professional
programmers (either experts or those learning to program). As personal computers become …

Specifying, enforcing and evolving access control policies is essential to prevent security
breaches and unavailability of resources. These access control design concerns impose …

Developers of complex systems have to address concerns such as security, availability of
services, and timeliness that often are non-orthogonal to traditional design structures, that is …

This paper proposes and implements a rigorous method for studying the dynamic behaviour
of AspectJ programs. As part of this methodology several new metrics specific to AspectJ …

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 …

The benefits of aspect-oriented programming (AOP) with respect to software design are
getting more and more accepted, and measurements have shown that AOP does not …

This paper presents a comprehensive approach to describe, deploy and adapt component-
based applications having dynamic non-functional requirements. The approach is centered …
