Abstract

Software Product Line Engineering (SPLE) is a software development paradigm to improve systematic software reuse. SPLE is intended to develop a set of similar software systems which share great commonalities within a particular application domain. There are two key assets underpin Software Product Line (SPL) development: feature model and reference architecture. To deal with complex crosscutting behaviors in SPL and also manage the impact of Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs), we propose an aspect-oriented framework in this paper. The proposed framework is able to improve the modeling of interrelationships between design factors and representation of the variabilities in product families. We introduce a small case study to illustrate our approach at the end.
