ABSTRACT
Several modeling profiles for aspect-oriented software have been proposed in the literature; however, many of them lack important concepts or have deficiencies when used for code generation. These problems indicate a disparity between the required basic concepts of the paradigm and the concepts provided by the notation. In this paper we propose a process to evaluate UML profiles in order to allow the detection of inconsistencies between what is provided by the profile and what is required by the paradigm. As a result, we found several inconsistencies after applying our process to evaluate a real aspect-oriented profile; these detections are beneficial to attain correct profiles allowing complete use of concepts and correct code generation

A platform-independent UML profile for aspect-oriented development
C3S2E '11: Proceedings of The Fourth International C* Conference on Computer Science and Software EngineeringAspect Oriented Software Development (AOSD) has its roots in the need to deal with requirements that cut across the primary modularization of a software system. On the programming level, mature, industrial-strength tools like the de-facto standard ...
Using UML as a Domain-Specific Modeling Language: A Proposal for Automatic Generation of UML Profiles
CAiSE '09: Proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Advanced Information Systems EngineeringNowadays, there are several MDD approaches that have defined Domain-Specific Modeling Languages (DSML) that are oriented to representing their particular semantics. However, since UML is the standard language for software modeling, many of these MDD ...

However, UML can be extended and tailored through the definition of profiles. In this paper, ...
