Aspect-Oriented Requirements Engineering

Aspect-oriented requirements engineering (AORE) aims to facilitate the identification and analysis of crosscutting concerns (also termed aspects) in order to understand their potential effects and tradeoffs with respect to other stakeholder requirements, as this support is missing in most traditional requirements engineering techniques. In recent years significant work has been carried out in the field of AORE, and with this book the editors aim to provide a consolidated overview of these efforts and results. The individual contributions discuss how aspects can be identified, represented, composed and reasoned about, as well as how they are used in specific domains and in industry. Thus, the book does not present one particular AORE approach, but conveys a broad understanding of the aspect-oriented perspective in requirements engineering. The chapters are organized in five sections: concern identification in requirements, concern modelling and composition, domain-specific use of AORE, aspect interactions, and AORE in industry. Overall, this book provides its readers with an extensive set of techniques for handling various aspects in a structured way. Software engineers and related professionals in industry who work with broadly scoped, crosscutting concerns (such as security, privacy, response time, etc.) daily, as well as advanced undergraduate and post-graduate students and researchers, will benefit from the comprehensive descriptions and the industrial case studies.
