Semantics and scoping of aspects in higher-order languages

TLDR
The subtleties of pointcuts and advice for higher-order languages, particularly Scheme are described and resolved by alluding to traditional notions of scope, and programmers can now define both dynamic aspects traditional to AOP and static aspects that can capture common security-control paradigms.

Chemical foundations of distributed aspects

TL;DR: The aspect join calculus is proposed, an aspect-oriented and distributed variant of the join calculus that addresses crosscutting and provides a formal foundation for distributed AOP, and a minimal aspectjoin calculus is developed that allows aspects to advise chemical reactions.

AspectScheme: aspects in higher-order languages

TL;DR: AspectScheme is an implementation of the Scheme programming language built on MzScheme, providing support for pointcuts and advice aspect-oriented programming.

Aspects for Stages: Cross Cutting Concerns for Metaprograms.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce aspect-oriented support for multi-stage languages by identifying three aspect types for the staging pipeline, namely pre-, in and poststaging, and discuss their implementation in a language supporting compile-time metaprogramming, where aspects are realized as batches of AST transformation metaprograms.

SCAM, a flexible, scheme-like language for teaching programming language concepts

TL;DR: This paper introduces Scam and gives a series of projects and solutions that are appropriate for a Programming Languages course.

Compositional Reasoning About Aspect Interference (Full version with proofs)

TL;DR: This work addresses the issue of reasoning about interference with effectful aspects in the presence of unrestricted quantification through pointcuts and establishes a general equivalence theorem that is based on a few conditions that can be established, reused, and adapted separately as the system evolves.

Aspect-oriented programming

TL;DR: This work proposes to use aspect-orientation to automate the calculation of statistics for database optimization and shows how nicely the update functionality can be modularized in an aspect and how easy it is to specify the exact places and the time when statistics updates should be performed to speed up complex queries.

Aspect-Oriented Programming

TL;DR: An analysis of why certain design decisions have been so difficult to clearly capture in actual code is presented, and the basis for a new programming technique, called aspect-oriented programming, that makes it possible to clearly express programs involving such aspects.

An Overview of AspectJ

TL;DR: AspectJ provides support for modular implementation of a range of crosscutting concerns, and simple extensions to existing Java development environments make it possible to browse the crosscutting structure of aspects in the same kind of way as one browses the inheritance structure of classes.
