Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) has emerged in recent years as a new paradigm for software development. PRISMA is an approach for developing complex and large software systems. It combines the Aspect-Oriented Software Development (AOSD) and the Component-Based Software Development (CBSD) in an elegant and novel way achieving a better management of crosscutting-concerns and software reusability. PRISMA approach proposes the separation of concerns from the very beginning of the software life-cycle in order to introduce them as reusable aspects of software architecture. PRISMA provides a framework to guide the development of complex and large software systems. The framework is composed by a modelling tool, a .NET middleware, and a compiler to automatically generate the application source code. In this paper, we present the modeling tool of the PRISMA framework and how it supports the reuse and maintenance improvements of the PRISMA model and its Aspect-Oriented Description Language (AOSD). We illustrate our proposal and modelling tool using a real-life case, the TeachMover robot.
