From Feature Models to Variation Representation in MSCs
Marı́a Victoria Cengarle, Peter Graubmann, Stefan Wagner, Technische Universität München · 2004
This paper discusses variation representation in MSCs for their use in the conception and development of system families. For the system family to be, a feature model and a variation point modelling within use cases are assumed given. The language of MSCs is extended with two macrooperators and one operator that allow the representation of variabilities. The macrooperators are to be resolved in terms of a given configuration. Both a grammar and a diagrammatic representation of these operators are given, and their semantics is stated in informal terms.
