A software product line (SPL) represents a family of products in a given application domain. Each SPL is constructed to provide for the derivation of new products by covering a wide range of features in its domain. Nevertheless, over time, some domain features may become obsolete with the apparition of new features while others may become refined. Accordingly, the SPL must be maintained to account...
The reuse of design in the software product line (SPL) domain brings many benefits because it permits a clear understanding of the SPL. These SPL contain a set of common elements and a set of variable elements known as features. One of the main difficulties for representing SPL design is the variability. In order to express the variability in a SPL design and to reinforce its comprehension, it is...
Several real-time embedded system must be dynamically reconfigured to account for hardware/software faults and/or maintain acceptable performances. Depending on the run-time environment, some reconfigurations might be unfeasible, i.e., they violate some real-time constraints of the system. In this paper, we deal with the development of dynamically reconfigurable embedded systems in terms of the production...
Software Product Lines (SPL) offer the ability to create, maintain and evolve a set of similar products with the simplicity of a single system rather than the complexity of deploying a multitude of products. It is well recognized by the research community interested in SPLs that designing SPLs with the standard UML language do not provide for a clear understanding of the SPL. This motivated us to...
Software Product Lines (SPL) ensure predictive and organized software reuse. In practice, SPL are often set up after several similar product variants have been in use. This practical fact prompted a quest for bottom-up processes that start from existing the source of product variants to identify a product line. This later is then described with a feature model that essentially specifies the components...
