Welcome

Aspect Programming is an advocacy site for Aspect-Oriented Software Development, sometimes just called Aspect-Oriented Programming. We explore the role that AOSD plays in many facets of software development, especially design and implementation. We also explore the practical challenges of using existing AOSD tools and techniques. Lately, we have been developing Aquarium, an AOP toolkit for the Ruby language.
