Ubiquitous computing systems raise numerous challenges in software engineering. Among these, the dynamic variation of open ubiquitous computing environments requires continuous adaptation of applications. Aspect-Oriented Programming is a well-adapted technique to bring together independence of concerns and extensibility for dynamic adaptation. However, the dynamic adaptation has to occur within a reasonable timeframe, which requires a detailed knowledge of the weaving duration. In this paper, we introduce “Aspect of Assembly”, an aspect-oriented approach to develop services- and components-based applications. Then we study the response time of the adaptation process by decomposing the weaving process. The model of the duration of the adaptation process enables us to define
a priori
constraints to meet temporal requirements for real-world applications. Throughout this paper, we illustrate our work with an actual industrial use case to provide service continuity for a hydrant worker in the water industry.
