Extracting domain behaviors through multi-criteria, polymorphism-inspired variability analysis

作者：

Highlights：

• Extracting domain knowledge may improve system development and maintenance.

• Domain behaviors can be automatically extracted from implementations of systems.

• In clone-and-own scenarios, the domain infrastructure can be automatically drafted.

• In independent development scenarios, a conceptual domain model can be created.
