Feature model

In software development, a feature model is a compact representation of all the products of the Software Product Line (SPL) in terms of 'features'. Feature models are visually represented by means of feature diagrams. Feature models are widely used during the whole product line development process and are commonly used as input to produce other assets such as documents, architecture definition, or pieces of code.
