Abstract

In this chapter, we present the AOM profile proposed for the specification of security aspects on UML design models. The proposed profile covers the main UML diagrams that are used in software design, i.e., class diagrams, state machine diagrams, sequence diagrams, and activity diagrams. In addition, it covers most common AOP adaptations, i.e., adding new elements before, after, or around specific points, and removing existing elements. Moreover, we present a high-level and user-friendly pointcut language proposed to designate the locations where aspect adaptations should be injected into base models.
