Aspect-oriented programming (AOP) is rapidly gaining popularity among research and industry as a methodology that complements and extends the object-oriented paradigm.AOP promises to localize the concerns that inherently crosscut the primary structural decomposition of a software system. Localization of concerns is critical to parallel development, maintainability, modular reasoning and program...

Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP, see [AOP]) as well as Model-Driven Software Development (MDSD, see [MDSD]) are both becoming more and more important in modern software engineering. Both approaches attack important problems of traditional software development. AOP addresses the modularization (and thus, reuse) of cross-cutting concerns (CCC). MDSD allows developers to express structures and al...

The structure of aminooligopeptidase (AOP), an intestinal brush-border digestive hydrolase, is abnormal in human diabetes and in the congenitally diabetic BioBreed Wistar (BB(d)) rat. Its assembly in the BB(d) rat was examined. After normal initial synthesis and assembly of immature AOP precursor (AOP(i)) with high-mannose N-linked chains in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), processing of N-linke...

This paper reports on the challenges of using aspect oriented programming (AOP) to aid in re-engineering a legacy C application. More specifically, we describe how AOP helps in the important reverse engineering step which typically precedes a reengineering effort. We first present a comparison of available AOP tools for legacy C code bases and then argument our choice of Aspicere, our own AOP i...

JAMI aims to be a generic aspect interpreter framework which can be used to prototype a wide range of AOP languages. However, only toy AOP languages have been implemented in JAMI. One of these toy AOP languages is a small subset of the coordination language COOL. By extending the COOL implementation, we implement a complex, existing AOP language to show that JAMI really supports a wide range of...

Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) improves modularity by encapsulating crosscutting concerns into aspects. Some mechanisms to compose aspects allow invasiveness as a mean to integrate concerns. Invasiveness means that AOP languages have unrestricted access to program properties. Such kind of languages are interesting because they allow performing complex operations and better introduce function...

BACKGROUND Late preterm infants (34-36 weeks' gestation) remain a population at risk for apnea of prematurity (AOP). As infants affected by respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) have immature lungs, they might also have immature control of breathing. Our hypothesis is that an association exists between RDS and AOP in late preterm infants. OBJECTIVE The primary objective of this study was to ass...

Context: Aspect-oriented programming (AOP) promises to improve many facets of software quality by providing better modularization and separation of concerns, which may have system wide affect. There have been numerous claims in favor and against AOP compared with traditional programming languages such as Objective Oriented and Structured Programming Languages. However, there has been no attempt...

Antioxidant-like protein-1 (AOP-1) reduces the intracellular level of reactive oxygen species. In the present study, the age‑related change in AOP‑1 expression in the hippocampus among young, adult and aged gerbils was compared using western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry. The results demonstrated that the protein expression of AOP‑1 was gradually and significantly increased in the hipp...
