I want my AOP!, Part 1 Most software systems consist of several concerns that crosscut multiple modules. Object-oriented techniques for implementing such concerns result in systems that are invasive to implement, tough to understand, and difficult to evolve. The new aspect-oriented programming (AOP) methodology facilitates modularization of crosscutting concerns. Using AOP, you can create implementations that are easier to design, understand, and maintain. Further, AOP promises higher productivity, improved quality, and better ability to implement newer features. This article, the first in a three-part series, introduces the AOP concept and the problems it attempts to solve.   |

Achieve strong performance with threads, Part 2 Developers sometimes create multithreaded programs that produce erroneous values or exhibit other strange behaviors. Odd behavior typically arises when a multithreaded program does not use synchronization to serialize thread access to critical code sections. What does it mean to serialize thread access to critical code sections? This article explains Java's synchronization mechanism, and two problems that arise when developers fail to use that mechanism correctly. |
