Abstract:


The problem of realizing the Separation Of Concerns (SOC) principle is at the heart of the software crisis where crosscutting concerns tend to produce a messed simulation systems by decreasing their modularity, and reducing their reuse. Aspect-Oriented Programming paradigm is newly technique introduced for software development. It may co-exist with other methodologies, such as object-oriented, in order to keep the most system interesting properties, such as reusability and adaptability. In this paper, we present a synthetic study of the most efforts of using the aspect oriented programming paradigm (AOP) in the simulation modeling field. Besides that, we explore the promising perspectives in this research area and our ongoing work towards an Aspect Oriented Simulation Framework (Japrosim).
