Abstract

The notion of aspect is important as a systematic approach to the representation of cross-cutting concerns and the incremental additions of new functionalities to an existing system. Since UML is a modeling language used in early stages of software development, studying how UML is related to aspectual software is an important topic. This paper proposes a way of introducing the join point model (JPM) to UML/STD. The proposed extension is smoothly integrated with the core part of the execution semantics adapted by the UML standard. the semantics consist of the RTC step, the broadcast events, and the implicit consumption of the events.
