MAVEN: Modular Aspect Verification

چکیده

Aspects are program modules that include descriptions of key events (called joinpoints) and code segments (called advice) to be executed at those key events when the aspect is bound (woven) to an underlying system. The MAVEN tool verifies the correctness of an aspect relative to its specification, independently of any specific underlying system to which it may be woven. The specification includes assumptions about properties of the underlying system, and guaranteed properties of any system after the aspect is woven into it. The approach is based on model checking of a single state machine constructed using the linear temporal logic (LTL) description of the assumptions, a description of the joinpoints, and the state machine of the aspect advice. The tableau of the LTL assumption is used in a unique way, as a representative of any underlying system satisfying the assumptions. This is the first technique for once-and-for-all verification of an aspect relative to its specification, thereby increasing the modularity of proofs for systems with aspects.

Modular Verification of Strongly Invasive Aspects

An extended specification for aspects, and a new verification method based on model checking are used to establish the correctness of strongly-invasive aspects, independently of any particular base program to which they may be woven. Such aspects can change the underlying base program variables to new states, and after the aspect advice has completed, the base program code continues from states...

Modular Aspect Verification for Safer Aspect-Based Evolution

A long-term research goal for Aspect-Oriented Programming is the modular verification of aspects such that safe evolution and reuse is facilitated. However, one of the fundamental problems with verifying aspect-oriented programs is the inability to determine the effect of the weaving process on the control flow of the program, and thus on the state of the system and subsequently the properties ...
