Modeling Crosscutting in Aspect-Oriented Mechanisms

Modeling four aspect-oriented programming mechanisms shows the way in which each supports modular crosscutting. Comparing the models produces a clear three part characterization of what is required to support crosscutting structure: a common frame of reference that two (or more) programs can use to connect with each other and each provide their semantic contribution.
