Solutions have been proposed to support awareness in groupware. Frequently, this requirement is fulfilled by similar functionalities that are implemented in different modules within these collaborative applications. These solutions usually represent crosscut concerns related to awareness by the use of object-oriented programming. As a result, tightly coupled components are generated as well as ...

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...

Aspect-oriented programming is an extension to object-orientation with the goal of separating the concerns of domain logic from application logic. The essay aims at looking at aspect-oriented from a theoretical perspective, trying to place it within the existing framework provided by object-orientation. The first section is an introduction to objectorientation. Here I will present the most comm...

Different aspects of identity have been investigated across various educational fields. Although many studies have been done to investigate different aspects of EFL teachers’ identity development, there is a paucity of research on identity-oriented EFL teacher education programs. Hence, the purpose of the current study was to investigate EFL teacher educators’ and EFL teachers’ perspectives abo...

The diffusion of service-oriented computing is today heavily influencing many software development and research activities. Despite this, service-oriented computing is a relatively new field, where many aspects still suffer from a lack of standardization. Also, the service-oriented approach is bringing together researchers from different communities or from organizations having developed their ...

We propose a methodology, based on Aspect-Oriented Modeling (AOM), for incorporating security mechanisms in an application. The functionality of the application is described using the primary model and the attacks are specified using aspects. The attack aspect is composed with the primary model to obtain the misuse model. The misuse model describes how much the application can be compromised. I...

Aspect-orientation has been capturing researcher’s attention for the last few years. We have seen the birth of several aspect-oriented programming techniques and also the propagation of the aspect concept to the earlier stages of the software development process, such as requirements analysis and design. Our long-term goal is to extend aspect-orientation to the business modelling activity. This...

SOA architecture is more and more used in the companies, The importance of the service orientation and its advantages with the information system of the company, confront us to a new challenge. It is primarily to ensure the decisional aspect of the information system of company by adopting Services Orientated Architecture like support architecture. This engineering must ensure on the one hand t...

Modeling four aspect-oriented programming mechanisms shows the way in which each supports modular crosscutting. Comparing the models produces a clear three part characterization of what is required to support crosscutting structure: a common frame of reference that two (or more) programs can use to connect with each other and each provide their semantic contribution.
