Abstract
Generative and Component-Based Software Engineering are approaches to reuse. Within both approaches the scope of reuse can vary between general purpose and application specific. We argue for scoping the reusable assets based on a product line.
Domain analysis methods provide processes for determining the common and varying requirements for a product line. However, we experienced that existing methods have problems concerning applicability and instantiation support. Therefore, we have developed the Customizable Domain Analysis (CDA) method.
CDA is customizable to the project context where it will be applied. This ensures that the method and workproducts used for modeling are appropriate for the specific needs. CDA also provides full instantiation support for specifying systems in the product line.
