A Classification and Survey of Analysis Strategies for Software Product Lines (2014, background): “In addition, a multitude of sophisticated composition and generation mechanisms have been developed [Czarnecki and Eisenecker 2000; Svahnberg et al. 2005; Apel et al. 2013a]; all establish and maintain a mapping between features and implementation artifacts (such as models, code, test cases, and…”
Feature-Oriented Software Product Lines (2013, methodology): “present a taxonomy of variability-realization techniques, which is alternative to our classification (Svahnberg et al. 2005).”
