SOA architecture is more and more used in the companies, The importance of the service orientation and its advantages with the information system of the company, confront us to a new challenge. It is primarily to ensure the decisional aspect of the information system of company by adopting Services Orientated Architecture like support architecture. This engineering must ensure on the one hand t...

The Java Power Tools is an extensive pedagogical toolkit that is designed for rapid development of graphical user interfaces, for robust IO with automatic error checking, for graphics display of mutatable shapes, images, and text, and for quick construction of all associated data structures. The Java Power Tools includes a framework, Java Power Framework, that is designed for efficient experime...

The expression of new aspect-oriented structures of the 23 GoF design patterns in term of a pivot meta-model that we propose for aspect-oriented modelling; proves strong similarities between most of the models that we obtained for these patterns. This work led us therefore to propose a new taxonomy of patterns and consequently to identify a new set of aspect-oriented design patterns. We propose...

We describe the coordination model of the Neem Platform, a research test bed for Project Neem, concerned with the development of socially and culturally aware collaborative systems in a wide range of

Based on a general model of feature composition, we present a composition language that enables programmers by means of quantification and weaving to formulate extensions to programs written in different languages. We explore the design space of composition languages that rely on quantification and weaving and discuss our choices. We outline a tool that extends an existing infrastructure for fe...

This research is about making knowledge about the domain of software applications explicit and separating it from other concerns of the software, thus enhancing software understandability, software maintenance, and software reuse. To achieve this we use existing knowledge representation technologies from AI in state-of-the-art software engineering. Our approach is not unlike the principles Aspe...

The principles of crosscutting concern separation and composition have been used by the AspectOriented Development Community in order to solve the problems of tangling and scattering. In this work we present a proposal for integrating crosscutting concerns during the requirements engineering process. This approach uses goal models and the concepts defined in aspect-oriented languages to provide...
