Abstract

This paper proposes a UML profile for software product lines. This profile includes stereotypes, tagged values, and structural constraints and it makes possible to define PL models with variabilities. Product derivation consists in generating product models from PL models. The derivation should preserve and ensure a set of constraints which are specified using the OCL.
