Software architectures have gained wide popularity in the last decade. They generally play a fundamental role in coping with the inherent difficulties of the development of large-scale and complex software systems. Component-oriented and aspect-oriented programming enables software engineers to implement complex applications from a set of pre-defined components.
Software Architectures and Component Technology collects excellent chapters on software architectures and component technologies from well-known authors, who not only explain the advantages, but also present the...

The LNCS Journal Transactions on Aspect-Oriented Software Development is devoted to all facets of aspect-oriented software development (AOSD) techniques in the context of all phases of the software life cycle, from requirements and design to implementation, maintenance and evolution. The papers, which focus on mapping of early aspects across the software lifecycle, and aspects and software evolution, have passed through a careful peer reviewing process.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the international conference NetObjectDays 2002, held in Erfurt, Germany, in October 2002.

The 26 revised full papers presented were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and revision. The papers are organized in topical sections on embedded and distributed systems; components and MDA; Java technology; Web services; aspect-oriented software design; agents and mobility; software product lines; synchronization; testing, refactoring, and CASE tools.

This journal is devoted to all facets of aspect-oriented software development (AOSD) techniques in the context of all phases of the software life cycle, from requirements and design to implementation, maintenance and evolution. The focus is on approaches for systematic identification, modularization, representation and composition of crosscutting concerns, i.e., the aspects and evaluation of such approaches and their impact on improving quality attributes of software systems.

This book constitutes the strictly refereed proceedings of the 11th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming, ECOOP'97, held in Jyvaskyla, Finland, in June 1997.
The book presents 20 revised full papers selected from a total of 103 submissions; also included are two full invited presentations and one abstract of an invited talk. The book is divided into topical sections on programming languages, types, metaprogramming, implementation and systems, formal methods and specifications, Java, and patterns. All in all, the volume impressively demonstrates that object-oriented technology...

This volume presents two regular revised papers, a guest editors' introduction, and six papers in a special section that have been through a careful peer reviewing process by the journal's Editorial Board. Besides a wide range of topics from software design to implementation of aspect-oriented languages, the six papers of the special section concentrate on AOP systems, software and middleware.
