The use of domain-specific languages (DSLs) is a successful technique in the development of complex systems. Indeed, the construction of new DSLs addressing the particular needs of software projects has become a recurrent activity. In this context, the phenomenon of specification cloning has started to appear. Language designers often...

The use of domain-specific languages (DSLs) has become a successful technique in the development of complex systems. Consequently, nowadays we can find a large variety of DSLs for diverse purposes. However, not all these DSLs are completely different; many of them share certain commonalities coming from similar modeling patterns – such as state...

The use of domain-specific languages (DSLs) has become a successful technique to develop complex sys tems. In this context, an emerging phenomenon is the existence of DSL variants, which are different versions of a DSL adapted to specific purposes but that still share commonalities. In such a case, the challenge for language designers is to...

In the software and systems modeling community, research on domain-specific modeling languages (DSMLs) is focused on providing technologies for developing languages and tools that allow domain experts to develop system solutions efficiently. Unfortunately, the current lack of support for explicitly relating concepts expressed in different DSMLs...

Current metamodeling techniques can be used to specify the syntax and semantics of domain specific modeling languages (DSMLs). However, there is currently very little support for explicitly specifying concurrency semantics using metamodels. Often, such semantics are provided through implicit concurrency models embedded in the underlying...

The use of domain-specific languages (DSLs) has become a successful technique in the development of complex systems. Nevertheless, the construction of this type of languages is time-consuming and requires highly-specialized knowledge and skills. An emerging practice to facilitate this task is to enable reuse through the definition of...

We present ViViD, a variability-based tool to synthesize variants of video sequences. ViViD is developed and used in the context of an industrial project involving consumers and providers of video processing algorithms. The goal is to synthesize synthetic video variants with a wide range of characteristics to then test the algorithms. We...

A key problem when developing video processing software is the di culty to test di erent input combinations. In this paper, we present VANE, a variability-based testing approach to derive video sequence variants. The ideas of VANE are i) to encode in a variability model what can vary within a video sequence; ii) to exploit the variability model...

Las líneas de producto software se usan para gestionar la producción de sistemas software con un alto grado de variabilidad lo que puede permitir tener un mejor tiempo de respuesta para poder configurar un producto de acuerdo a sus especificaciones concretas en un escenario de uso determinado. La investigación en líneas de producto software se...

In an industrial project, we addressed the challenge of developing a software-based video generator such that consumers and providers of video processing algorithms can benchmark them on a wide range of video variants. This article aims to report on our positive experience in modeling, controlling, and implementing software variability in the...

.Feature models are widely used to encode the configurations of a software product line in terms of mandatory, optional and exclusive features as well as propositional constraints over the features. Numerous computationally expensive procedures have been developed to model check, test, configure, debug, or compute relevant information of...
