摘要:Monitoring the runtime state and behavior of applications is very important to evaluate the performance of these applications and to inspect their behavior. In case of legacy applications that have been developed without monitoring capabilities, there is a real challenge to accomplish runtime state monitoring. This research redefines runtime monitoring concept, and then presents an Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) framework to equip applications with the capabilities to monitor their runtime state transparently. The framework, called RM Framework, supports three monitoring modes; Invasive-mode, Controlled-mode/(Functionality and Attribute), and Controlled-mode/Selective. The framework is applied on a Java application as a case study. The results show smooth integration between application and runtime monitoring capabilities without affecting the target application consistency.
