Integration of dynamic AOP into the OSGi service platform

The ability to adapt to different computing environments or external changes is an important requirement for both stationary and mobile computing. Without this ability, all requirements have to be foreseen, which is often not possible in practice. Classical software engineering approaches often lead to redeployment or even software migration. Therefore loosely coupled software design and a dynamic adaptation model are required. Dynamic aspect-oriented programming (d-AOP) in conjunction with service oriented programming is well suited to face this demand. One well known approach providing a service-oriented component model is the OSGi Service Platform.
