Abstract

The area of aspect-oriented software development (AOSD) has seen much progress in the past few years towards improving the quality of object-oriented, generative, and component-based software engineering, including some use in large-scale applications. Large-scale AOSD requires tools, paradigms, and methodologies that support multiple aspect models, multiple artifacts and formalisms, and multiple tasks and activities. The Concern Manipulation Environment (CME) is an Eclipse open source project that aims to provide a set of open, extensible components and a set of tools that promote aspect-oriented software development throughout the software lifecycle. This paper provides an overview of this programming environment. It also provides a general discussion of the available tools and the platforms where this environment can be integrated.
