Design of mechatronic systems through aspect and object-oriented modeling

Object-oriented behavioural modelling of mechatronic systems

Mechatronic systems overcome the traditional borders of classical engineering disciplines. Behavioural modelling allows the developer to describe the behaviour of components and systems from arbitrary disciplines. This paper introduces a way to transform the functional models of those systems into an object-oriented description. The objects implementing this integration of behaviour and animati...

Aspect-Oriented Modeling with Integrated Object Models

With the advent of aspect-oriented programming, the need for adequate techniques for handling aspect-oriented artifacts in the early phases of the software engineering process has emerged. In this paper, we present an aspect-oriented language extension for an integrated modeling language based on object models. We present the way aspect constructs can be handled in requirements and architectura...

On Aspect-Oriented Technology and Object-Oriented Design Patterns

More and more works are done on design patterns and aspect-oriented programming. These works mainly propose to use aspect-oriented programming mechanisms to provide new implementations of objectoriented design patterns. This paper illustrates our own approach by presenting an aspect-oriented implementation of the GoF Strategy pattern, and claims implementation is not sufficient: aspect-orientat...
