Abstract :
The increasing complexity in the development of distributed systems has promoted the appearance of new software technologies that complements compositional framework technology providing a high degree of separation of concerns. One of these approaches is aspect-oriented-programming that introduces a new entity, the aspect, to model those features that cut across different components in the system, increasing its extensibility and configurability. Our goal is the application of this new technology to develop an aspect-oriented application framework to construct highly reusable collaborative virtual environments in short time
