This paper proposes EventCJ, a context-oriented programming (COP) language that can
modularly control layer activation based on user-defined events. In addition to defining …

Domain-Specific Aspect Languages (DSALs) are Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs)
designed to express crosscutting concerns. Compared to DSLs, their aspectual nature …

Event-driven programming style in OO languages based on imperatively triggered events
does not support separate and more declarative event definitions by composition or …

Context-aware systems keep on emerging as an intrinsic part of everyday activities. To cope
with such situations, programming languages are extended to support the notion of context …

Block joinpoints allow programmers to explicitly mark regions of base code as" to be
advised", thus avoiding the need to extract the block into a method just for the sake of …

Alternative semantics for aspect-oriented abstractions can be defined by language
designers using extensible aspect compiler frameworks. However, application developers …

A variety of dynamic aspect-oriented language constructs are proposed in recent literature
with corresponding, compelling use cases. Such constructs demonstrate the need to …

In the coming years, information technology will continue to transform the way we think,
work, communicate, and learn. The tremendous success of Internet-related technologies …

This paper proposes a new pointcut called region pointcut, which has the ability to pick out
regions as join points. This pointcut allows programmers to modularize synchronization …

Dynamic aspect-oriented (AO) features have important software engineering benefits such
as allowing unanticipated software evolution and maintenance. It is thus important to …
