Externalized selection middleware for variability management

摘要

A system and method for dynamically selecting logical operations using external criteria, includes providing tools for defining a selection criteria set having parameters including dimensions and valid values, wherein the selection criteria set includes a plurality of different arrangements and values of the parameters. The selection criteria set and collections of instances thereof are persistently maintained. A trigger is provided at runtime to query the persistently maintained instances to automatically select a logic operation to employ based upon a context of the query.
