LNCS Transactions on Aspect-Oriented Software Development
ISSN: 1864-3027 (print version)ISSN: 1864-3035 (electronic version)
This journal aims to publish papers on all facets of aspect-oriented software development (AOSD) techniques in the context of all phases of the software life cycle, from requirements and design to implementation, maintenance and evolution. The focus of the journal is on approaches for systematic identification, modularization, representation and composition of crosscutting concerns, and evaluation of such approaches and their impact on improving quality attributes of software systems.
