A. Arsanjani S. Ghosh A. Allam T. Abdollah S. Ganapathy K. Holley Service-oriented modeling and architecture (SOMA) has been used to conduct projects of varying scope in multiple industries worldwide for the past five years. We report on the usage and structure of the method used to effectively analyze, design, implement, and deploy service-oriented architecture (SOA) projects as part of a frac...

Aspect-oriented programming essentially offers a way of enhancing the separation of concerns in software development. However, one of the most fundamental dimensions of concern, refinement, is not addressed in existing aspect-oriented approaches, despite the fact that much of the perceived "tangling" between software components comes from low level component interactions created by refining hig...

In this essay the situation of petroleum knowledge creation and dissemination in Iran oil industry and its technological capabilities have been investigated. This configuration and trend has been studied by a documentary method and content analysis of the scientific articles that published in  a distinguished  journal of Iran oil industry  and so the related structures during  1979-1908.the res...

Aspect oriented programming is a way of reducing the complexity of software development, in the sense that it is easier to reason about isolated concepts. The complexity of web applications has been increasing in the last few years, mainly, because customers are requesting more and more. We think that advanced separation of concerns can be a good strategy to reduce the complexity of web applica...

Dependency injection is a hot topic among industrial developers using component frameworks. This paper first mentions that dependency injection and aspect-oriented programming share the same goal, which is to reduce dependency among components for better reusability. However, existing aspect-oriented programming languages/ frameworks, in particular, AspectJ, are not perfectly suitable for expre...

The importance of security in the development of complex software systems has increasingly become more critical as software becomes increasingly more pervasive in our everyday lives. Aspect-orientation has been proposed as a means to handle the crosscutting nature of security requirements when developing, designing and implementing security-critical applications. This paper surveys some of the ...

The proof of the behaviour-preserving property of programming laws is not trivially demonstrated. It is necessary to show that the programs, before and after the transformation, have the same behaviour. In this paper we show how it is possible to prove that an aspect-oriented programming law preserves behaviour; an operational semantics for Method Call Interception is used. An equivalence relat...
