Feature-Oriented Modelling in BIP: A Case Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we investigate the usage of BehaviourInteraction-Priority version 2 (BIP2), a component-based modelling framework, for specifying feature-oriented systems. We evaluate BIP2 in the context of the Feature Interaction Problem and quantify the amount of work needed to add features to an existing system (i.e., in terms of rework to existing features, and work to identify and specify interactions). We present the results of a case study on a telephony system with five optional features where we found that the amount of work depends heavily on how features are interconnected. We identify a number of different strategies for interconnecting features, and propose one that reduces the amount of work and rework needed to add new features to an existing system.

Capability & Potential for Formal Feature-oriented Reuse in Event-B
Context: Event-B is a leading state-based language for formal modelling and verification of systems supported by an extensible Rodin toolkit. Its existing composition techniques provide a starting point for the investigation of capability for reuse via feature-based modelling. We contribute early methodology for formal development of software product lines (SPLs). An SPL is a set of related pro...
متن کاملExploring Gördes Zeolite Sites by Feature Oriented Principle Component Analysis of LANDSAT Images
Recent studies showed that remote sensing (RS) is an effective, efficient and reliable technique used in almost all the areas of earth sciences. Remote sensing as being a technique started with aerial photographs and then developed employing the multi-spectral satellite images. Nowadays, it benefits from hyper-spectral, RADAR and LIDAR data as well. This potential has widen its applicability in...

Baseline data represent one of the important stages of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) procedure that describes the existing environment of the study area and surrounding areas in enough detail to allow the environmental impacts of the proposed area to be accurately and adequately assessed, and future changes and effects can be measured. Baseline data may be inaccurate, difficult to obtai...
متن کاملRelating Feature Models to Other Models of a Software Product Line - A Comparative Study of FeatureMapper and VML*
Software product lines using feature models often require the relation between feature models in problem space and the models used to describe the details of the product line to be expressed explicitly. This is particularly important where automatic product derivation is required. Different approaches for modelling this mapping have been proposed in the literature. However a discussion of their...
متن کاملA Study of English Listening Comprehension Improvement via Product- vs. Process-Oriented Tactics: The Case Study of Shiraz EFL Learners
As listening comprehension plays an indispensable role in language learning, the way in which language instructors cover teaching listening comprehension has been controversial; the recent study selected two approaches to associate listening comprehension tactics: product-oriented and process-oriented. A quasi-experimental design was adopted to get to the objectives. Using a random procedure, 1...
