Modeling used for Software Product Line Engineering

Abstract

Software product line is the separation of variant features of all the products which belong to same line. Modeling is the basic foundation of Software Product Line Engineering, that is used for collection of what is similar and what is different between products, but products of same line. Here Line means a set of products those are related and share some commonalities like data structures, software components, some features and architecture etc.In order to managing the variability and commonalties in product line we use modeling in Software product line.So that SPLE is the most powerful approach to which we can use for to increase the efficiency of the software engineering process and we can develop variety of software from a single software product line, that’s why if we implement low design that can ripple through many generated software systems.In this paper I represent the relationship between Orthogonal Variability model and various different qualities attributes affecting them., I will also describe some existing metrics which we use to measure these quality attributes.
