  abstract = {In industrial settings, products are rarely developed by one organization
	alone. Software vendors and suppliers typically maintain their own
	product lines, which can contribute to a larger (multi) product line.
	The teams involved often use different approaches and tools to manage
	the variability of their systems. It is unrealistic to assume that
	all participating units can use a standardized and prescribed variability
	modeling technique. The configuration of products based on several
	models in different notations and with different semantics is not
	well supported by existing approaches. In this paper we present an
	integrative approach that provides a unified perspective to users
	configuring products in multi product line environments, regardless
	of the different modeling methods and tools used internally. We also
	present a technical infrastructure and a prototypic implementation
	based on Web Services. We show the feasibility of the approach and
	its implementation by using it with two different variability modeling
	approaches (one feature-based and one decision-oriented approach)
	on an example derived from industrial experience.},
