Abstract: Aspect-oriented modelling (AOM) is a paradigm aiming to deal with the limits of object-oriented modelling and for solving the problem of interaction or separation (crosscutting) between base (functional) and aspectual (not functional) model. In this paper, we propose an approach that transforms some UML 2.0 diagrams to aspect-oriented diagrams using graph transformation. To realise this work, we have proposed a meta-model for each UML diagram and Aspect models (diagram of aspect class, activity, and communication) and a graph grammar that performs the transformation process. We have used the meta-modelling tool ATOM3 and python language to implement our transformations. A detailed example is presented to illustrate our approach.
