Aspect-oriented programming is a revolutionary new way to think about software
engineering. Unlike conventional development techniques, which scatter into multiple
classes the code fragments implementing various features, aspect-oriented programming
localizes all code for cross-cutting features.
The result is a programming approach that more easily and efficiently addresses
security, logging, persistence, debugging, tracing, distribution, performance
monitoring, and exception handling. Aspect-oriented software development (AOSD)
uses this approach to create a better modularity for functional and nonfunctional
requirements, platform specifics, and more, allowing you to build more understandable
systems that are easier to configure and extend to meet the evolving needs of
users.
In this highly anticipated book, Ivar Jacobson and Pan-Wei Ng demonstrate how
to apply use cases—a mature and systematic approach to focusing on user
concerns—and aspect orientation in building robust and extensible systems.
Throughout the book, the authors employ a single, real-world example of a hotel
management system to make the described theories and practices concrete and
understandable.
The authors show how to identify, design, implement, test, and refactor use
case modules and extend them. They also demonstrate how to design use case modules
with Unified Modeling Language (UML)—emphasizing enhancements made in UML
2.0—and how to implement use case and aspect modules using aspect technologies
such as AspectJ and AspectWerkz.
Key topics include
- Making the case for use cases and aspects
- Capturing and modeling concerns with use cases
- Keeping concerns separate with use case modules
- Modeling use cases slices and aspects using the newest extensions to the
UML notation
- Applying use cases and aspects in projects
Whatever your level of experience with aspect-oriented programming, Aspect-Oriented
Software Development with Use Cases will teach you how to develop better software
by embracing the paradigm shift to AOSD.

About the Author
Dr. Ivar Jacobson,Vice President of Business Engineering, is
the inventor of the OOSE method, and he is also the founder of Objectory AB
in Sweden, which recently merged with Rational Software Corporation. Dr. Jacobson
is the principal author of two influential and best-selling books Object-Oriented
Software Engineering--A Use Case Driven Approach (Computer Language Productivity
award winner in 1992) and The Object Advantage--Business Process Reengineering
with Object Technology. He has also authored several widely referenced papers
on object technology. One of the most famous papers is his first OOPSLA '87
paper entitled "Object-Oriented Development in an Industrial Environment,"
which presented the first truly object-oriented method ever published. Ivar
Jacobson's use-case driven approachhas had a very strong impact on the entireOOAD
industry, and he himself has become one of its "icons." Consequently,
he isa frequently invited keynote speaker and panelist, debating OOAD topics
withcolleagues and methodologists such as Grady Booch, Jim Rumbaugh, StevenMellor,
and Rebecca Wirfs-Brock at major OO conferences around the world.
He is well known for his pioneering work and more than 20 years of experience
inusing object methods for the design of large real-time systems. His earlyobject-based
design technique has evolved into the international standardITU(formerly CCITT)/SDL.
Dr. Jacobson also regularly serves on the OOPSLA, ECOOP, and TOOLSprogram committees,
and he is a member of the advisory board of the Journal ofObject-Oriented Programming.
In 1994, Ivar Jacobson received the first Swedish Computer Association (SCA)award
(the Kjell Hultman prize) for "extraordinary achievement in promotingefficiency
and productivity in the development and use of informationtechnology."

Great book
This is a GREAT book. It is principally a book on architecture and software design: By this I mean it covers requirements (use case, architecture based approach) to full design using an aspect oriented technologies. The full Rational Unified Process is covered with a sample application which should you how to apply aspects. It gives a brilliant presentation of architecture and how to apply architecture to development; about half of the book is dedicated to architecture.
Great architecture and software design book!
