AbstractDue to aspect-oriented mechanisms explosion, their concepts arrive to distributed systems tackling concepts as security, persistence, or synchronization, especially in middleware approaches. Regarding distributed databases, the research has been focused mainly on object-oriented databases. Based on the great impact of…
