In recent years, a number of researchers have started to apply the same 
kind of thinking developed in aspect-oriented programming (AOP) to the 
early stages of the software life-cycle, and even to requirements 
engineering. Where AOP seeks to provide orthogonal modularisations of 
code that cannot be neatly modularised by (for example) inheritance, 
early aspects researchers seek to provide a solution for the handling of 
requirements that cross-cut stakeholder groups, use cases, or other 
information or architectural structures.

This afternoon event will provide both an introduction to early aspects 
and snapshots of on-going work in the area by leading researchers in 
Aspect-Oriented Software Development from the UK, Europe and the US.
