Social Aspects in Software Engineering was a joint event of the workshops “Software Engineering within Social Software Environments (SENSE)” and “Collaboration and Knowledge Sharing in Software Development Teams (SofTEAM)” that was held in conjunction with SE 2009 in Kaiserslautern on March 3rd. The full-day program covered issues of collaboration and knowledge exchange in the development of so...

Developing secure software is still a software engineering challenge because of the complexity of software security. Yet integrating security engineering and software engineering is increasingly important, especially for serviceoriented applications, as they are exposed to new security challenges due to their open nature. Current security engineering approaches do not consider existing security...

Focus of Aspect Oriented Software Development is on the identification, separation, representation and composition of crosscutting concerns. Crosscutting concerns behavior effects the whole system development. Traditional requirement engineering process does not cater for these crosscutting concerns. A new aspect oriented requirement engineering process is proposed to overcome this deficiency. ...

The distinction between Objects and Components is well-known, but the distinction between Components and Services is much less clear. Therefore, we define the Product-ProcessQuality framework which intends to provide a clear understanding of the differences between Component-based software engineering (CBSE) and Service-Oriented software engineering (SOSE). Moreover, this framework handles the ...

The Goal-Oriented requirement engineering approach offers important advantages for a deeper study of software requirements. Some of them are supported for reasoning about design alternatives and traceability between requirements and software architecture. However, in complex systems, requirements specifications suffer from crosscutting, which affects elaboration, readability and maintainability...

This report summarizes the outcome of the 14th Workshop on Aspect-Oriented Modeling (AOM), as part of the 12th International Conference onModel Driven Engineering Languages and Systems – MoDELS 2009 – in Denver, Colorado, USA, on the 4th of October 2009. The workshop brought together researchers and practitioners from two communities: aspect-oriented software development (AOSD) and software mod...

Software re-engineering and object orientation are two areas of growing interest in the last years. However, while many researchers have focused their interest in the object-oriented design methodologies, a little attention has been paid to the re-engineering towards an object-oriented environment. In this paper we examine the motivations towards object-oriented re-engineering (extendibility, r...

This paper proposes a coordination model, for intelligent agents, based on filters and latent Semantic Indexing Algorithm to extract information from Web documents . This paper focuses on the development of an agent-oriented software engineering UML methodology. UML divide architecture of agent into roles to fetch, analyze and evaluate a document. If the filter recommends a document it, means t...
