Abstract
Two of the fundamental needs in defining an architecture for a product line are
-
to be able to generalize or abstract from the individual products to capture the important aspects of the product line and
-
to be able to instantiate an individual product architecture from the product line architecture
In other words, having a product line implies having a generic architecture from which the individual product architectures can be derived in some manner.
