Designing Software Product Lines with UML

Abstract

Software Product Line Development advocates software reuse by modeling common and variable artefacts separately across members of a family of products. Aspect-Oriented Software Development aims at separation of concerns with “aspects†​ to increase modularity, reusability, maintainability and ease of evolution. In this paper, we apply an as-pect-oriented use case modeling approach to product line system modeling. A use case specification captures stake-holders concerns as interactions between a system and its actors. We adapt our previous work with the introduction of a “variability†​ r 40 Open Source, Free and Top Unified Modeling Language (UML) Tools : Review of Top Open Source and Free Unified Modeling Language (UML) Tools including ArgoUML, StarUML, UMLet, Dia, BOUML, Violet, EclipseUML, gModeler, RISE, NClass, NetBeans IDE, GenMyModel, Plantuml, UML Modeller, Open ModelSphere, Oracle Jdeveloper, Papyrus, Oracle SQL Developer are the Top Open Source and Free Unified Modeling Language (UML) Tools.Top Unified Modeling Language (UML) Tools : Review of Top Unified Modeling Language (UML) Tools including IBM Rational Rose, Visio, StarUML, Visual Paradigm, Sparx Enterprise Arch Explore a Service-Oriented Software product lines (SoSPL) methodology that applies SPL variability analysis techniques to Web services to design customized service-based applications. Find out how software product lines (SPL) promote agile and flexible application development for evolving system families. And discover how the adoption of SPL principles can provide a systematic way to analyze and design service-oriented applications. You can model business processes using Unified Modeling Language (UML) activity diagrams. Activity diagrams are particularly useful in detailing the workflow of business processes during domain business modeling. Figure 1 shows a hotel reservation process.
