Product Lines (PL) have proved an effective approach to reuse-based systems development. Several modeling languages were proposed so far to specify PL. Although they can be very different, these languages show two common features: they emphasize (a) variability, and (b) the specification of constraints to define acceptable configurations. It is now widely acknowledged that configuring a product can...
Constraint Programming (CP), and in particular boolean CP, has been used so far to support analysis of variability models such as Feature Oriented Domain Analysis (FODA) and like. This paper goes a step further by using constraint programming to specify the Product Line (PL). The vision of variability and variation points completely disappear, and the focus is completely on constraints. Of course,...
Product line models (PLM) are important artifacts in product line engineering. Due to their size and complexity, it is difficult to detect defects in PLMs. The challenge is however important: any error in a PLM will inevitably impact configuration, generating issues such as incorrect product models, inconsistent architectures, poor reuse, difficulty to customize products, etc. Surveys on feature-based...
