Product Lines and Families
Product families promote reuse of software artifacts such as architectures, designs and implementations. Product family architectures are difficult to create due to the need to support variations. Traditional approaches emphasize the identification and description of generic components, which makes it difficult to support variations among products. Our current work proposes an approach for transforming a family architecture to a product design through a four-way refinement and evolution process.
