ASPECT-ORIENTED DOMAIN SPECIFIC LANGUAGES FOR ADVANCED TRANSACTION MANAGEMENT

Abstract

Transaction management has some known drawbacks, which have been researched in the past, and many solutions in the form of advanced transaction models have been proposed. However, these models are too difficult to be used by the application programmer because of their complexity and their lack of separation of concerns. In this paper we address this by letting the application programmer specify advanced transactions at a much higher abstraction level. To achieve this, we use the software engineering techniques of Aspect Oriented Programming and Domain-Specific Languages. This allows the programmer to declare advanced transactions separately in a concise specification which is much more straightforward.
