Example

Decide upon concerns1. Car Manufacturer2. Customer3. Government

12

Example

Allocate views1. Car Manufacturer:

Engine, Transmission, Performance, Directives

2. Customer: Gas, Electric, Manual, Automatic, 180Hp, 240Hp

3. Government: Weight, CO2 emission

ExampleManufacturer

Apply views1. Car Manufacturer:

Engine, Transmission, Performance, Directives

2. Customer: Gas, Electric, Manual, Automatic, 180Hp, 240Hp

3. Government: Weight, CO2 emission

Check view coverage No overlooked features? Feature not part of a view inferred from

others?

Feature modeling First introduced by Kang et al. (1990) FDs origins from SPL Car manufacturers in the 80s

Rosenmüller et al. (2011) Use of seperate FDs for each dimension

Similar method by Zhao et al. (2008) But applied to classic FDs
