The electronic and automation industries develop and maintain software embedded in computer controlled products. Higher software productivity can be achieved by a systematic software engineering process and an environment that supports automatic software mass customisation. Existing methods are too narrow and commercial tools are often too closed to be suited for component based software tailoring. Integrating feature and object based models and providing a distributed environment based on commercial tools feature models of embedded software are utilized in reuse oriented product development, maintenance and sales. Reuse of product knowledge is based on layered feature models. Configuration data for product variations is automatically derived and mapped to software design and implementation components and assemblies.
