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

Most of the exceptions exert a global design impact as they tend to flow through multiple
module interfaces of a software system. Exception handling mechanisms in programming …

This paper presents AspectO ptima, a language independent, aspect-oriented framework
consisting of a set of ten base aspects—each one providing a well-defined reusable …

Embedded domain-specific languages (EDSLs) are said to be easier to compose than DSLs
that are implemented by preprocessors. However, existing approaches focus on …

The emergence of crosscutting concerns can be observed in various representations of
software artefacts (eg source code, models, requirements and language grammars) …

Advanced programming techniques such as metaprogramming and computational
reflection, as well as the more recent paradigm of aspect-oriented programming (AOP) …

The structured query language (SQL) is not only the de-facto standard for defining data base
(DB) queries, it is also known as being one of the most widely used domain-specific …

Transactional requirements, from new application domains and execution environments, are
varying and may exceed traditional ACID properties. We believe that transactional …

Domain-specific aspect languages (DSALs) bring the well-known advantages of domain
specificity to the level of aspect code. However, DSALs incur the significant cost of …

Distributed applications are difficult to write as programmers need to adhere to specific
distributed systems programming conventions and frameworks, which makes distributed …
