  • Abstract
    Developers working on existing programs repeatedly have to address concerns, or aspects, that are not well modularized in the source code comprising a system. In such cases, a developer has to first locate the implementation of the concern in the source code comprising the system, and then document the concern sufficiently to be able to understand it and perform the actual change task.
