Abstract:
An increasing number of publications in product line engineering address product derivation, i.e., the process of building products from reusable assets. Despite its importance, there is still no consensus regarding the requirements for product derivation support. Our aim is to identify and validate requirements for tool-supported product derivation. We identify the requirements through a systematic literature review and validate them with an expert survey. We discuss the resulting requirements and provide implementation examples from existing product derivation approaches. We conclude that key requirements are emerging in the research literature and are also considered relevant by experts in the field.
