Abstract
The AspectIX middleware architecture allows to specify aspects, and to program and configure these aspects via well-defined configuration interfaces. Aspects can be added and controlled dynamically. Distributed objects support aspects and clients only need to know the configuration interfaces to control aspects.
Currently we have considered aspects concerning the internal communication semantics of the object, consistency, replication, and mobility. For combining AspectIX with aspect-oriented programming, we envision aspect weavers that generate code for the AspectIX configuration interface.
