METHOD AND APPARATUS OF EXTENDING PRODUCT MODELING LANGUAGES TO LANGUAGES FOR MODELING A FAMILY OF PRODUCTS, AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM

摘要

PURPOSE: A method and apparatus of extending product modeling languages to languages for modeling a family of products and a computer readable recording medium are provided to creates a modeling language of a software product group by simultaneously expanding existing language for modeling a software unit product based on an OCDL(Orthogonal Commonality Description Language). CONSTITUTION: An input unit(810) receives a modeling language of a single product. A commonality representing unit(830) analyzes the product modeling language and extracts the relation among variable values, variable points included in a product group model, and the variable value on the variable point considering the attribute of the whole components and relations with each other. The commonality representing unit expresses the common platform of the product group using the variable points and the relations.
