Abstract

In this chapter, we present a denotational semantics for aspect matching and weaving in lambda-calculus. The proposed semantics is based on the so-called Continuation-Passing Style (CPS) since this style of semantics provides a precise, accurate, and elegant description of aspect-oriented mechanisms. We first formalize semantics for a core language based on lambda-calculus. Afterwards, we extend the semantics by considering flow-based pointcuts, such as control flow and data flow that are important from a security perspective.
