Measuring and Characterizing Crosscutting in Aspect-Based Programs: Basic Metrics and Case Studies
[chapter]
Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering
Preserved Fulltext
Despite being a core tenet of Aspect Oriented Programming, little research has been done in characterizing and measuring crosscutting concerns. ...
And what is the impact of crosscutting in actual Aspect Oriented programs? ...
Earlier work of the first author described a preliminary definition of our metrics that were applied to a single case study [31] . ...

We found the code of these programs to be on average 86 % objectoriented, 12 % basic AspectJ mechanisms (introductions and method extensions), and 2 % advanced AspectJ mechanisms (homogeneous advice or ...
