Requirements engineering for product families
Juha Kuusela, Juha Erik Savolainen · 2000
In search for improved software quality and high productivity, software reuse has become a key research area. One of the most promising reuse approaches is product families. However, current practices in requirements engineering do not support product families. This paper describes a definition hierarchy method for requirements capturing, structuring, analysis and documentation. This method helps to identify architectural drivers of the product family and shows how different products in the family vary.
