Abstract

Aspect-oriented programming is a relatively new approach to programming that is design to resolve issues of separation of concerns. Rather than focusing on commonality of objects, as in object-oriented programming, aspect –oriented programming focuses on commonality of concerns, or more precisely as described by experts in the field, of "cross-cutting concerns." These are aspects that cut across different modules of a program, such as security and authentication issues.

While much research in the area has focused on developing programming languages, little attention has been given to dealing with aspects in the software development process and the Unified Modeling Language. This thesis will examine how aspects are created during the software development process and how they can be modeled in the UML.
