Ana Moreira is an associate professor at Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Portugal, where she leads the software engineering group. Her main research topics are on advanced modularization, requirements engineering, architecture design, and model-driven development. She is a co-founder of the Early Aspects community and has led several research projects in this area. She has served as a PC chair for International Conferences on AOSD 2009 and MODELS 2013 as well as a member of the Steering Committee for both for a number of years.

Ruzanna Chitchyan is a lecturer in Software Engineering at the Department of Computer Science, University of Leicester, UK. Her current research interests are in requirements modelling and analysis in general, and aspect-oriented requirements engineering and architecture design in particular. She has worked on several major EU-funded projects on these topics and served on the PC of the International Conference on Requirements Engineering, as well as various tracks of the International Conference on AOSD.

João Araújo is an assistant professor at the Department of Informatics, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Portugal. His principal research interests are in requirements engineering, model-driven engineering and software product lines. He is a co-founder of the Early Aspects workshops and a contributor to several research projects on this topic. He has served on the Program Board for the International Conference on RE in 2013 and as a PC member of several other international conferences.

Awais Rashid is a professor of Software Engineering at Lancaster University, UK, where he leads research on advanced software modularity and composition mechanisms. His current research interests are in AOSD, model-driven engineering and their applications for managing software variability and product lines. He has served as a member of the steering committee of the International AOSD conference, organising chair for AOSD 2004, PCco-chair

From the reviews:



"This book [...] will prove indispensable for both professionals and advanced students [...]. This discipline [Aspect-Oriented Requirements Engineering] is broadly applicable to industry, as well software projects deal with aspectual requirements at various levels. These aspects need to be identified, reasoned about, and managed, and the techniques and tools presented here will be of great value in this respect." Nathan Carlson, ACM Computing reviews, June 2014
