  • Abstract
    Feature component maps describe which software components are needed to implement a particular feature, and they are used early in processes to develop a product line based on existing assets. This paper describes a new technique to derive the feature component map and additional dependencies utilizing dynamic information and concept analysis. The method is simple to apply, cost-effective, largely language-independent, and can yield results quickly and very early in the process
