Abstract :
Variability in software architecture is a multi-facet problem, and domain-related variation is one of these several facets. In this paper, we focus exclusively on this one aspect of variation in software architecture, namely domain-related variation (or domain variability). Our goal is to review existing frameworks and tools that address domain variability in the area of model-driven generative approach. From this systematic survey, we identify open challenges for modeling domain variability in these areas.
