Abstract:In complex software systems, modularity and readability tend to be degraded owing to inseparable interactions between concerns that are distinct features in a program. Such interactions result in tangled code that is hard to develop and maintain. Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) is a powerful method for modularizing source code and for decoupling cross-cutting concerns. A decade of growing research on AOP has brought the paradigm into many exciting areas. However, pioneering work on AOP has not flourished eno… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
