Abstract :
The product-family paradigm is predicated on the definition of a general product architecture from which a number of different architectures can be derived, each addressing the needs of a separate market segment, with a high level of component reuse. The way this is achieved is through the identification of variability points within a generic product architecture, from which variant product architectures are generated, each product with a specific range of functionality.
