Micro-measurements for Dynamic Aspect-Oriented Systems

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNCS,volume 3263))

Abstract

The benefits of aspect-oriented programming (AOP) with respect to software design are getting more and more accepted, and measurements have shown that AOP does not necessarily introduce severe performance penalties. A benchmark suite for measuring the performance of AspectJ software is being developed. However, general benchmarks are missing for the emerging field of dynamic AOP, even though major J2EE application server vendors begin to employ dynamic aspects in their systems. Instead, work on dynamic AOP frequently comprises varying measurements. To be eventually able to classify such systems along their performance qualities, it is important to develop a benchmark suite for dynamic AOP. In this paper, we present a first building block for such a benchmark suite in the form of micro-measurements. We also present and discuss results gained by running the measurements in several dynamic AOP systems. A discussion of requirements for dynamic AOP benchmarks finishes the paper.
