Join Point Patterns: A High-Level Join Point Selection Mechanism

Walter Cazzola, Sonia Pini

Abstract: Aspect-Oriented Programming is a powerful technique to better modularize object-oriented programs by introducing crosscutting concerns in a safe and noninvasive way. Unfortunately, most of the current join point models are too coupled with the application code. This fact hinders the concerns separability and reusability since each aspect is strictly tailored on the base application.
