Using Transformation-Aspects in Model-Driven Software Product Lines

International audienceModel-Driven Software Product Lines (MD-SPL) are configured by using configuration models and Problem Space metamodels that capture product line scope. Products are derived by means of successive model transformations, starting from problem space models and based on the configuration models. Fine-variations of MD-SPLs correspond to characteristics that afect particular elements of models involved in the model transformations. In this paper, we present an approach to create MD-SPL including fine-variations. We configure products creating fine-feature configurations. Then, based on such configurations, we create MD-SPLs using principles of Aspects Oriented Development. Thus, our approach allows to derive products including fine-grained details of configuration
