Abstract:
The aspect-oriented programming paradigm (AOP) as a way of improving the separation of concerns principle has emerged initially at the programming level using strong languages like AspectJ. Currently, it becomes mature to stretch at premature stages of the software development process namely, the Aspect-Oriented Software Development (AOSD) which is a popular topic of software engineering research that leads to more dependable, reusable and maintainable artifacts. In this paper, we propose a UML profile for modeling crosscutting concerns where the separation of concerns is maintained to the level of code and the weaving is done by an AspectJ compiler.
