ABSTRACT
Aspects cut new interfaces through the primary decomposition of a system. This implies that in the presence of aspects, the complete interface of a module can only be determined once the complete configuration of modules in the system is known. While this may seem anti-modular, it is an inherent property of crosscutting concerns, and using aspect-oriented programming enables modular reasoning in the presence of such concerns.

Join point interfaces for modular reasoning in aspect-oriented programs
ESEC/FSE '11: Proceedings of the 19th ACM SIGSOFT symposium and the 13th European conference on Foundations of software engineeringWhile aspect-oriented programming supports the modular definition of crosscutting concerns, most approaches to aspect- oriented programming fail to improve, or even preserve, modular reasoning. The main problem is that aspects usually carry, through ...
Cooperative aspect-oriented programming
Aspect-oriented programming (AOP) seeks to improve software modularity via the separation of cross-cutting concerns. AOP proponents often advocate a development strategy where programmers write the main application (base code), ignoring cross-cutting ...
