Scope:

This document, within the context of tools and methods of variability mechanisms for software and system product lines:

  • provides the terms and definitions related to variability mechanisms for software and systems product lines;
  • defines processes and their sub-processes for operating variability mechanisms at each product line life cycle stages and those for providing managerial supports. Those processes are described in terms of purpose, inputs, tasks and outcomes;
  • defines method capabilities to support the defined tasks of each process;
  • defines tool capabilities to automate/semi-automate tasks or defined method capabilities.

This document does not concern processes and capabilities of tools and methods for a single system, but rather deals with those for a family of products.

Project need:

To review the Standard within the required 5 year period.
