Finding Contradictions in Feature Models

Adithya Hemakumar · Software Product Lines · 2008

A feature model defines each product in a product-line by a unique combination of features. Feature compatibilities are expressed as constraints in feature models and may be contradictory. We suggest a run-time approach to expose contradictions in feature models when they are uncovered. However, the emphasis of this paper is to explore the possibility of finding contradictions statically using model checking and an incremental consistency algorithm.
