Abstract

It has been shown earlier that aspect-oriented change realization based on a two-level change type framework can be employed to deal with changes so they can be realized in a modular, pluggable, and reusable way. In this paper, this idea is extended towards enabling direct change manipulation using multi-paradigm design with feature modeling. For this, generally applicable change types are considered to be (small-scale) paradigms and expressed by feature models. Feature models of the Method Substitution and Performing Action After Event change types are presented as examples. In this form, generally applicable change types enter an adapted process of the transformational analysis to determine their application by their instantiation over an application domain feature model. The application of the transformational analysis in identifying the details of change interaction is presented.
