초록

빠르게 변화하는 시장의 요구에 대응하고자 특정 영역에 속하는 애플리케이션 간의 재사용을 높이려는 프로덕트 라인 개발 방법에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 프로덕트 라인 개발 방법에서는 영역 내의 여러 애플리케이션들 간의 차이점과 공통점을 분류하는데 피쳐 모델링이라는 분석 방법을 주로 사용하고 있다. 기존 피쳐 모델링에서는 피쳐를 비정형적으로 명세화하기 때문에 모호성, 이해의 오류, 잘못된 해석 등의 문제가 발생하고 있다. 피쳐를 추상화하여 도메인에 독립적인 메타 모델로 나타내고 정형화 기법을 도입하여 명세화 한다면 기존의 피쳐 모델에서 발생하는 문제점들을 해결할 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 첫째, 메타 수준에서의 피쳐 모델링을 통하여 피쳐의 구조와 속성을 정의한 후 다중 패러다임 정형화 명세 언어를 사용하여 피쳐를 명세화하는 기법을 제시하였다. 둘째, 피쳐에 대한 정형화 명세 프로세스를 기술하였으며, 셋째, 명세화된 피쳐들 간에 발생할 수 있는 문제점들을 해결하기 위한 피쳐 상호작용 관리기법을 정의하였다. 그리고 마지막으로, 제시된 피쳐의 정형화 명세 기법을 분산 미팅 스케줄러 시스템에 적용시켜보았다.

In a feature modeling, problems such as ambiguities, interpretation errors, incompleteness, etc caused by informal specification occur in the modeling phase. Therefore, feature specification method and processes are suggested in this paper to resolve these problems. The structure and language of feature modeling is defined in this paper to specify various features. First, this feature model is abstracted in the meta-level to get predicates and attributes. Formal feature model specification method is proposed using multi-paradigm language. Second, Feature specification process is proposed to describe how to specify feature formally. And third, Feature interaction management is defined to solve the problems caused between specified features. Finally, the proposed feature specification method is applied to Distributed Meeting Scheduler System domain.
