Achieving sufficient execution performance is a challenging goal of software development. Unfortunately, violating performance requirements is often revealed at a late stage of the development. Fixing a performance problem at such a late stage is difficult in terms of cost and time. To solve this problem, this paper presents QoSWeaver, which provides aspect-oriented application-level scheduling. QoSWeaver weaves scheduling code written in an aspect into application code. The scheduling code gets an application thread to voluntarily yield its execution to implement a scheduling policy. The idea of scheduling at the application level is not new, but aspect-oriented programming makes it more realistic by separation of scheduling code. QoSWeaver also provides a profile-based pointcut generator, which automatically generates pointcuts for fine-grained scheduling. To investigate the ability of QoSWeaver for implementing practical scheduling policies, we used QoSWeaver for tuning the performance of a river monitoring system named Kasendas. For reliable examination, Kasendas was originally developed by an outside corporation and then it was tuned by the authors with QoSWeaver. The authors could successfully improve the performance of Kasendas under heavy workload and the work of the performance tuning was not large.
