Related Literature (1) This approach originates in the engineering practice of software reuse In 1990 feature models were introduced to support reusable product line assets and development of products. Jeroen Eissens (Kang,Cohen, Hess, Novak & Peterson, 1990)(Frakes & Kang, 2005)

Related Literature (2) FODA (Feature-Oriented Domain Analysis) FORM (Feature-Oriented Reuse Method) FeatureRSEB (Reuse-Driven Software Engineering Business) These three methods provide a basis for this method, but don’t adopt techniques for the automatic generation of feature models.
