What is Feature Model

Handbook of Research on Software Engineering and Productivity Technologies: Implications of Globalization
The features of the software system are captured within a feature model. While the specific notation of the feature model varies based on the domain engineering methods, a feature model typically consists of four main elements. They are: feature diagram, feature definitions, composition rules, and the rationale for including the feature.

Abstract
Programming languages provide exception handling mechanisms to structure fault tolerant activities within software systems. However, the use of exceptions at this low level of abstraction can be errorprone and complex, potentially leading to new programming errors. To address this we have developed a model-driven exception management framework (DOVE). This approach is a key enabler to support global distributed solution delivery teams. The focus of this paper is the evaluation of the feasibility of this approach through a case study, known as Project Tracker. The case study is used to demonstrate the feasibility and to perform an assessment based on quality and productivity metrics and testing of the DOVE framework. The results of the case study are presented to demonstrate the feasibility of our approach.
