Healthcare providers in a heterogeneous distributed environment depend on many non-functional requirements or cross-cutting concerns that could affect the entire Healthcare Information System (HIS). The implementation of crosscutting concerns could ...

A series of requests are performed in fixed order to achieve certain requirements in web applications. The request integrity attack (RIA) is applied to steal users' data and identity, by inducing the users to execute malicious requests that are from ...

This paper reports on our experience with providing Information Flow Control (IFC) as a library. Our aim was to support the use of an unmodified Platform as a Service (PaaS) cloud infrastructure by IFC-aware web applications. We discuss how Aspect ...

Mining of crosscutting concerns is a process that crosscutting concerns are automated identified from code of legacy system. The mining of crosscutting concerns provides the possibility for aspect-oriented refactoring of legacy system. This paper ...

Quality content is essential for successful content business. Content aggregation is a process of outsourcing quality content. During the aggregation, some modification of original content in source code level is required. Aspect Oriented Programming (...

Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) advocates the notion of aspects to encapsulate crosscutting concerns. A concern is a behavior in a computer program and is said to be crosscutting if the module(s) that address the behavior are scattered and tangled ...

Security vulnerabilities in the web applications that we use to shop, bank, and socialize online expose us to exploits that cost billions of dollars each year. This paper describes the design and implementation of AspectShield, a system designed to ...

Software reliability can be greatly enhanced by using tools that can inspect and evaluate the runtime behavior and performance of a system, yet such tools are difficult to create. Aspect-oriented programming is a formal approach to instrumenting ...

Programming distributed and large systems requires dividing the extensive programming codes into smaller entities such as; modules, objects, agents, etc. Especially multi-agent systems (MAS) are emerged as a promising paradigm for constructing complex ...

In this paper we present the main concepts of a domain-specific aspect language for specifying cross-cutting concerns of MATLAB programs, together with a suite of metrics that is capable of assessing the overall advantage of introducing aspects in the ...

In this paper, we describe COCA -- Computation Offload to Clouds using AOP (aspect-oriented programming). COCA is a programming framework that allows smart phones application developers to offload part of the computation to servers in the cloud easily. ...

Underlying the work on Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) there is a premise that no one ever challenged: the existence of cross-cutting concerns that find their way to programs in a tangled and scattered manner. We've all seen it. But do tangling and ...

The omnipresence of these new technologies associated to different ways of interaction and to the diversity of user characteristics (such as age, level of education and geographical distribution) create new challenges for the usability assessment of ...

Within the context of the FITTEST project, one of our tasks was to instrument ActionScript bytecode, so that aspects of the execution of the running application are logged. Although the decision what to log and when requires manual intervention, the ...

During the lifetime of a software system, series of changes are made to the software. So many versions will be produced. Version control systems contain significant amounts of data that could be exploited in the study of software evolution. Analyzing ...

Enabling applications for computational Grids requires new approaches to develop applications that can effectively cope with resource volatility. Applications must be resilient to resource faults, adapting the behaviour to available resources. This ...

Temporal correctness is one of the most important requirements for time-critical systems. Although time-critical systems are designed to meet their timing constraints, there can be still errors especially with timing constraints in run-time due to ...

In this paper, we present some of the problems we have found in distributed aspect models and introduce a set of criteria that we consider necessary for a robust distributed aspect system. We outline of a first version of model based on aspects and ...

The construction of adaptive replicated systems, in which the replication control protocols can be replaced at runtime, requires to face with complex structural concerns that include: (i) the integration of replication control protocols with the ...

Implementation of distributed dynamic weaving is a crosscutting concern since the implementation is divided into several sub-concerns and some of them are crosscutting concerns. For example, it often includes a monitoring concern, which monitors the ...
