HOW SO: Benefits


HOW SO: Standarized infrastructure with feature models and

master specifications

Faster

development

through reuse of a

library


HOW SO: Features selection with dependency rules for variants

Less errors in your

development

through

dependency rules


HOW SO: Dependency overview in a Functions Variants Matrix

Comparison of

different variants


HOW SO: Variants specification documents generation

No longer writing of new

specifications

through automatically

generation of

specification documents


HOW SO: Generate a model out of the feature model

Integrating also

MBSE capabilities

based on your

feature model
