RE: Who is using AOP in industry?

Hi Sergio,

	The "AOP Goes .NET" workshop produced a whitepaper that described 3
case studies:

Marc Eaddy, Alan Cyment, Pierre van de Laar, Fabian Schmied, and Wolfgang
Schult, "Whitepaper: The Value of Improving the Separation of Concerns",
Technical Report CUCS-001-07, Department of Computer Science, Columbia
University, http://mice.cs.columbia.edu/getTechreport.php?techreportID=438,
January 2007.

Cheers,

Marc Eaddy
PhD Student
