Evolving software product lines with aspects: an empirical study on design stability
Eduardo Figueiredo,Nelio Cacho,Cláudio Sant'Anna,Mario Monteiro,Uirá Kulesza,Alessandro Garcia,Sergio Soares,Fabiano Cutigi Ferrari,Safoora Shakil Khan,Fernando Castor Filho,Francisco Dantas +10 more
TL;DR: This investigation focused upon a multi-perspective analysis of the evolving product lines in terms of modularity, change propagation, and feature dependency and identified a number of scenarios which positively or negatively affect the architecture stability of aspectual SPLs.

Modularizing design patterns with aspects: a quantitative study
Alessandro Garcia,Cláudio Sant'Anna,Eduardo Figueiredo,Uirá Kulesza,Carlos José Pereira de Lucena,Arndt von Staa +5 more
TL;DR: This paper presents a quantitative study that compares aspect-based and OO solutions for the 23 Gang-of-Four patterns and finds that most aspect-oriented solutions improve separation of pattern-related concerns, although only 4 aspect- oriented implementations have exhibited significant reuse.
On the Reuse and Maintenance of Aspect-Oriented Software: An Assessment Framework
TL;DR: This paper presents an assessment framework for AOSD, which is composed of two components: a suite of metrics and a quality model based on well-known principles and existing metrics in order to avoid the reinvention of well-tested solutions.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
On the impact of aspectual decompositions on design stability: an empirical study
Phil Greenwood,Thiago Tonelli Bartolomei,Eduardo Figueiredo,Marcos Dósea,Alessandro Garcia,Nelio Cacho,Cláudio Sant'Anna,Sergio Soares,Paulo Borba,Uirá Kulesza,Awais Rashid +10 more
TL;DR: A quantitative case study that evolves a real-life application to assess various facets of design stability of OO and AO implementations and includes an analysis of the application in terms of modularity, change propagation, concern interaction, identification of ripple-effects and adherence to well-known design principles.
