Our Decision Models Editor allows product line architects
to maintain uncoupled i) the information of features, ii) the
transformation rules,and iii) the possible execution conditions
of transformation rules that particular feature configurations
imply.Furthermore,ourDecisionModelsEditorallowsproduct
line architects to capture, as independent Aspects , how
transformation rules must be composed to derive configured

of the technology used to implement our approach. Finally,
our plug-in can capture execution conditions of transformation
rules to derive products based on binding models, which
represent fine-grained configurations.

The decision models of our application example facilitate
the derivation of any product that has been configured by
creating i) a domain model, ii) a valid binding model between
the facilities metamodel and the domain model, and iii) a valid
