Abstract

Separation of concerns is important to reduce the complexity of software design. This paper examines a software development method starting with the feature-oriented modeling method to have VDM-based formal design. In order to overcome the problem that a feature may be scattered over the VDM design description, the notion of the aspect is adapted to propose Aspect VDM. The identified features are concisely represented in Aspect VDM to demonstrate modular descriptions of cross-cutting concerns in VDM.
