Abstract

\With current trends towards moving variability
from hardware to software, and given the increasing
desire to postpone design decisions as much as is
economically feasible, managing the variability from
requirements elicitation to implementation is
becoming a primary business requirement in the
product line process. Nowadays, a medium size
software system may encompass hundreds if not
thousands of variability points introducing a new level
of complexity that current techniques struggle to
manage. In this paper, we present a new approach to
variability management by introducing a multiple
views model (4VM) where each view caters for specific
set of concerns that relate to a particular group of
stakeholders.
