Aspect-Oriented Modeling (AOM) is a promising technique for untangling the concerns of complex enterprise software systems. AOM decomposes the cross-cutting concerns of a model into separate models that can be woven together to form a composite solution model. In many domains, such as multi-tiered e-commerce web applications, separating concerns is much easier than deducing the proper way to we...

Establishing links between models are a fundamental issue in model driven engineering (MDE) practices. There are many situations where it is necessary to create links between models, for instance traceability, transformation specification, composition operations, model evolution, etc. Every application scenario may require the creation of different types of links. The existence of many applicat...

We extend the concept of weaving Hilbert space frames to the Banach space setting. Similar to frames in a Hilbert space, we show that for any two approximate Schauder frames for a Banach space, every weaving is an approximate Schauder frame if and only if there is a uniform constant C ≥ 1 such that every weaving is a C-approximate Schauder frame. We also study weaving Schauder bases, where it i...

Coming out from the process functional paradigm and using PFL – a process functional language, a generalized approach to weaving at the micro-structural level is presented. Exploiting the application of processes and PFL reflection property, we develop a generalized weaving scheme and we express it in the form of weaving pattern. Different specializations and extensions of weaving patterns occu...

Performance and availability are two critical requirements of today’s systems. Current dynamic AOP approaches have addressed the performance issue from one specific dimension: the performance of code after the weaving process. Other performance factors may have a great impact on overall system performance. This includes performance of the weaving process itself and also system availability in s...

Among the hand woven sarees of India, Paithani is famous and has played a significant role in weaving together the socio-cultural fabric of Maharashtra since it is traditionally a part of the trousseau of every Maharashtra bride. The aim of the study was to document the existing weaving traditions of Paithani and explore the possibility of weaving Paithani as a yardage with different product la...

The basic assumption in model engineering (MDE) is to consider models as first class entities. One of the most important kinds of models in MDE approaches are transformation models. Transformation models define operations between different models. However, there are many operations that are not efficiently handled by generic model transformations. For example, models transformations are not ada...

Run-time weaving of distributed aspects, if performed without any support for atomicity, endangers the global behavioral integrity of the application. Existing aspect-oriented middleware supports runtime weaving of distributed aspects, without addressing this problem. This inherently limits the type of behavioral changes that can be performed at run-time. This paper presents a model and an arch...

In this paper we briefly introduce an aspect language that can define cross-cutting effects on a set of UML 2.0 sequence diagrams. Our main contribution is to weave aspects and sequence diagrams at the model level. By basing the weaving upon a formal trace model for sequence diagrams, we ensure that the weaving is semantics-based. To avoid the intractability of working on complete trace sets, w...
