ZusammenfassungFeature-orientierte Programmierung (FOP) und Aspekt-orientierte Programmierung (AOP) sind komplementäre Technologien. Obwohl beide auf die Modularität von so genannten querschneidenden Belangen abzielen, so tun sie dies auf unterschiedliche Art und Weise. Im Rahmen der Arbeit wurde beobachtet, dass FOP und AOP kombiniert werden können, um ihre individuellen Schwächen zu überwinden. Die Arbeit schlägt mit Aspekt-basierten Featuremodulen und Aspektverfeinerung zwei Techniken zur Symbiose von FOP und AOP vor. Beide Techniken werden in einer Fallstudie evaluiert und entsprechende Programmierrichtlinien zum Einsatz von FOP und AOP werden abgeleitet. Schlussendlich wird mittels der Analyse von acht AspectJ-Programmen unterschiedlicher Größe die Frage beantwortet, wie Implementierungsmechanismen der FOP und der AOP heutzutage Verwendung finden.

The practical applications of agile methods and their impact on the productivity and efficiency of software development dominate the agile literature. We analyzed 827 academic articles with bibliometric techniques to explore the role project management research played in the development of the academic agile discourse. Bibliometric analyses over two time periods reveal that project management–related topics form a distinct stream of research in the second time period but not in the first. Furthermore, our results reveal that the academic agile discussion has been mainly unidirectional. This situation offers many opportunities for project management researchers to contribute to the agile discourse.

The Way

Experts' opinions exist that the way software is built is primitive. The role of modeling as a treatment for Software Engineering (SE) became more important after the appearance of Model-Driven Architecture (MDA). The main advantage of MDA is architectural separation of concerns that showed the necessity of modeling and opened the way for Software Development (SD) to become engineering. However, this principle does not demonstrate its whole potential power in practice, because of a lack of mathematical accuracy in the initial steps of SD. The question about the sufficiency of modeling in SD is still open. The authors believe that SD, in general, and modeling, in particular, based on mathematical formalism in all its stages together with the implemented principle of architectural separation of concerns can become an important part of SE in its real sense. They introduce such mathematical formalism by means of topological modeling of system functioning.
