There is a clue for you here?, Gabriel.

My name is Rafael Chaves (resume / currí­culo). I am a software development aficionado, and the founder (and currently only contributor) at Abstratt Technologies, an incubating software company that develops tools for model-driven software development. Want to know more? Click on the image below:

I am very interested in the use of aspects in the context of MDA, two great ways to achieve separation of concerns in software. That was the theme of my master's thesis (in Portuguese, a short paper in English available here). I am also interested in object-oriented design, model-driven development, distributed computing, and software engineering and architecture in general.

I have been quite active on the Abstratt front for the last few months, and am very close to finally shipping the first release of the TextUML Toolkit.

Unbelievably, one year has passed since we moved to Victoria after spending almost year in Brazil. Since January, I have been with Genologics (btw: Genologics is quite a special company to work for. They are hiring, so if you are a software developer looking for opportunities and live - or wanna live - in Victoria, you should definitely apply).

And we are finally moving to the west coast. This has been a long time goal for us and it is finally happening. I will be joining Sierra Systems as a software developer on June 15th. We will arrive a few days ahead, so we will have some time to get to know the town a bit before my first day at work.

Back to Brazil

After almost four years living in Ottawa, we are taking a break from the harsh Canadian winter (ironically right when it is summer in Canada and winter in Brazil). Also of note is the fact that I left my job at IBM to start working on my own business, a company that will develop tools for model-driven development. The plan is to head back to Canada before August 2007, hopefully to the warmer and sunnier Victoria, and with version 1.0 of the product available to the public.

I am very interested in the use of aspects in the context of MDA, two great ways to achieve separation of concerns in software. That was the theme of my master's thesis (in Portuguese). I am also interested in object-oriented design, model-driven development, distributed computing, and software engineering and architecture in general.

• security - the characteristics above require a lot of consideration of security issues;

Ideally, this could be started as a minimum runtime that handles classloading appropriately and some rudimentary support for dynamic install/uninstall/update (OSGi).

Key themes (these cannot be addressed as a second thought):

• dynamicity - should be possible to add/remove/update a new component to a running node (hot deployment);

July 29, 2005

Random thoughts about a distributed peer-to-peer software framework.

This just comes out of my personal frustation on the use of computers in a networked environment.

Key themes:

• dynamicity - should be possible to add/remove/update a new component to a running node (hot deployment cannot be a second thought;
• automatic discovery - nodes should be able to recognize each other automatically;
• remote management - nodes should allow remote management;
• mobility - components should be replicable/transferrable from a node to another;
• security - the characteristics above require a lot of consideration on security issues;
• simplicity - no cakes, please.

Things that come to mind: Jini, JXTA, OSGi, Voyager, JMX.

Special Issue on "Aspect Oriented Programming and Development for Software Evolution"

Hi, this is Rafael Chaves?, welcome to my web page.

July 9, 2005

Track on Programming for Separation of Concerns (Part of the 21st ACM Symposium on Applied Computing)

"The Programming for Separation of Concerns (PSC) track at the 2006 Symposium on Applied Computing will aim to bring together researchers to share experiences in using SoC? techniques, and explore the practical problems of existing tools, environments, etc. The track will address questions like: Can performance degradation be limited? Are unexpected changes dealt with by reflective or aspect-oriented systems? Is there any experience of long term evolution that shows a higher degree of flexibility of systems developed with such techniques? How such techniques cope with architectural erosion? Are these techniques helpful to deal with evolution of legacy systems? "

"The objective of this special issue is to highlight the benefits brought by the use of aspect-oriented approaches in developing and in maintaining a software system that can evolve in an unanticipated way."

"This workshop is a continuation of a highly successful series of workshops at OOPSLA04?, at OOPSLA03?, and at OOPSLA02?."

"In recent years model driven approaches have been embraced by the Object Management Group (OMG) in the form of the Model Driven Architecture® (MDA®) initiative, Microsoft has started to work on software development tools that fully embrace the concepts of software factories and domain specific languages, and a whole number of Open Source projects are now focused on building open tool platforms for MDSD."

"Model driven Open Source initiatives in particular may turn out to be critical in establishing MDSD as a mainstream software development paradigm."

"This workshop aims to identify and discuss the impacts of aspect-oriented technologies on software modeling, and to set up a shared agenda for future research in aspect-oriented modeling of software systems". It will be a one day long workshop during the MoDELS'05 conference.

Towards a Dynamic Join Point Model for UML Action Semantics

Abstract. This work acknowledges the potential benefits of mixing th use of the Model Driven Software Development and Aspect-Oriented Software Development, two different strategies for separating concerns. The model driven approach proposes a clear separation between concerns belonging to the problem domain and those related to implementation details, providing a fast track for mapping executable models into running applications. The aspect-oriented paradigm offers an elegant mechanism for expressing how different concerns relate to each other, allowing for a higher degree of modularity. We believe that together, models and aspects provide the necessary framework for building software that is much easier to maintain. In this context, we propose an approach for combining the two technologies based on a new dynamic join point model for UML action semantics.

I am also interested in object-orientation, distributed computing, and software engineering and architecture in general. My current spare-time project is a framework for creating aspect-oriented executable models called Libra, which is based on my thesis.

This is my personal wiki. I started it as an easy way to sketch ideas I eventually have or write about things I would like to do/am doing. Feel free to add your own comments/questions too. Feedback is most welcome.

I also keep a not-quite-often updated weblog called nothing new under the sun.

Looking for my old (outdated) static page in Portuguese? It is still available here.
