Özet:Feature modeling is a common way of representing commonality and variability in Software Product Lines. There are alternative notations reported in the literature to represent feature models. Compared to the graphical notations, the text-based notations are more amenable to automated processing and tool interoperability. This study presents an XML-based feature modeling language to represent extended feature models that can include complex relationships involving attributes. We first provide a Context Free Grammar for the extended feature model definitions including such complex relationships. Then we build the XML Schema Definitions and present a number of XML instances in accordance with the defined schema. In addition, we discuss a validation process for the validation of the XML instances against the defined schema, which also includes additional tasks such as wellformedness checking for the XML instances.
