Evaluation of Variability Concepts for Simulink in the Automotive Domain
Modeling variability in Matlab/Simulink becomes more and more important. We
took the two variability modeling concepts already included in Matlab/Simulink
and our own one and evaluated them to find out which one is suited best for
modeling variability in the automotive domain. We conducted a controlled
experiment with developers at Volkswagen AG to decide which concept is
preferred by developers and if their preference aligns with measurable
performance factors. We found out that all existing concepts are viable
approaches and that the delta approach is both the preferred concept as well as
the objectively most efficient one, which makes Delta-Simulink a good solution
to model variability in the automotive domain.Comment: 10 pages, 7 figures, 6 tables, Proceedings of 48th Hawaii
