Aspect Oriented Programming, ASDL (Aspect Oriented Design language)Abstract
Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) is a technique used to enhance the separation of concern in software design and implementation. To implement AOP developers most commonly use AspectJ, an extension of the Java language. In order to represent the separation of concerns a new design technique is needed for modeling of aspects. Aspect Oriented Design language (ASDL) is a design notation could build on the existing design language UML. It is capable of supporting many aspects-oriented languages. This research aims to investigate where developers can use aspect-oriented programming in the software development process. This includes how to identify Aspects in the design stage, then how they can be applied in the implementation process in software development. This will lead to improve modularity and reusability of the software. The paper will be a position paper abut Aspect Oriented Software Design, also will investigate several case studies of the design and implementation of a software application that shows how we can identify the Aspect in the process.
