- Description
- Software Product Line Engineering (SPLE) is a emerging software reuse paradigm. SPLE focuses on systematic software reuse from requirement engineering to product derivation throughout the software development life-cycle. Feature model is one of the most important reusable assets which represents all design considerations of a software product line. Feature model will be used in the product configuration process to produce a software. The product configuration is a decision-making process, where all kinds of relationships among configurable features will be considered to select the desired features for the product. To improve the efficiency and quality of product configuration, we are proposing a new approach which aims at identifying a small set of key features. The product configuration should always start from this set of features since, based on the feature dependencies, the decisions made on these features will imply decisions on the rest of the features of the product line, thus reduce the features visited in the configuration process. We have also conducted some experiments to demonstrate how the proposed approach works and evaluate the efficiency of the approach.
