Mastering AspectJ: Aspect-Oriented Programming in Java

Mastering AspectJ: Aspect-Oriented Programming in Java, 9780471431046 (0471431044), John Wiley & Sons, 2003

Write cleaner, easier-to-maintain applications with this code-intensive approach to using AspectJ

Aspect-oriented programming (AOP) promises to increase the power of OO applications by modularizing functionality that cuts across classes (such as logging, transaction management, design patterns, and security). If your application has this type of functionality, you can benefit from using AspectJ, an AOP language that is a seamless extension to Java.

In this code-intensive book, the authors present a detailed overview of the concepts of AOP and AspectJ, and take you step-by-step through the process of building an application.

Along the way, you’ll learn how to adopt AspectJ and use it with your current software development tools and processes. You’ll also learn best practices for application design and documentation using UML.

The perfect tool for Java and J2EE developers, this book also includes:

Comprehensive description of the AspectJ language
Best practices for refactoring your existing applications
How to implement classic OO design patterns more cleanly with AspectJ
Tips for debugging with AspectJ

The companion Web site contains all sample code, the fully functional application created by the author, and links to relevant sites.

Genetic Algorithms + Data Structures = Evolution Programs

Springer, 1998

Genetic algorithms are founded upon the principle of evolution, i.e., survival of the fittest. Hence evolution programming techniques, based on genetic algorithms, are applicable to many hard optimization problems, such as optimization of functions with linear and nonlinear constraints, the traveling salesman problem, and problems of...
