Abstract

The application of AOP methodology has been investigated in the development of Bioinformatics Software -- Bioseqsearch, using Eclipse-AJDT environment. The software aims to reveal the biological significance of an unknown sequence using similarity search through biological databases using NCBI BLAST via internet, thus deciphering the structure and biological function. Crosscutting concerns have been identified and modularized into aspects, thus reducing the complexity of the design due to elimination of code scattering and tangling. The impact of using this methodology on various quality factors of the software has been examined. The study assesses the usefulness of AOP methodology in design and implementation of real world bioinformatics software projects.
