An overview of the aspect weaver that operates on XML representation of the C/C++ source code. The weaver is designed to be modular, extensible and non-intrusive. http://control.ee.ethz.ch/~ceg/XWeaver/
Hyperspaces allow software enginners to split code - and other software artifacts such as requirements and design documents - along multiple concern dimensions, and recombine them automatically. http://www.research.ibm.com/hyperspace/
In this two part article Ivar Jacobson describes how aspect oriented programming provides the missing link to providing use-case modularization all the way from requirements down to code. http://www.jaczone.com/papers/

Free chapter from the book "Generative Programming" - covers basic concepts of AOP with examples in C++, Java, Smalltalk, and in AspectJ, Demeter, SOP and Composition Filters; and techniques for implementing weaving. http://www.prakinf.tu-ilmenau.de/~czarn/aop/
