Abstract :
Variability Models are designed for modelling variabilities of a software. Unfortunately they are not part of a well-known modelling framework for a higher usability, like the Unified Modelling Language. To address this limitation, we provide a UML 2 profile for variability models. Furthermore we show the dependency from the UML profile to activity diagrams to make the relationship between variability models and process models visible. This profile and its mapping are tested with example business processes.
