Developing .NET Web Service-based Applications with Aspect-Oriented Component Engineering
Santokh Singh, John Grundy, John Hosking · 2004
Current approaches to engineering web service-based software systems are limited by lack of comprehensive web service component characterisations. In this paper, we describe our recent work applying Aspect-Oriented Component Engineering (AOCE) to develop more adaptable, higher quality and more reusable software components for web services. We give examples on how AOCE can be used to design and implement Web Servicebased systems, including aspect-oriented enhancements to the Web Services Description Language and the Universal Discovery, Description and Integration standards. We describe a prototype web services system we have implemented using AOCE to demonstrate and evaluate our technique. 1.
