Feature models have been commonly used to model the variability in software product lines. In this paper we present the Feature Assembly framework which is a new approach for creating feature models through feature composition and feature assembly. Furthermore, it promotes feature reusability by storing features in a so-called feature pool, which acts as a feature repository. The Feature Assembly Framework is based on the Feature Assembly feature modeling method, which will be briefly

The feature assembly modeling method also provides a simpler and easier to use modeling language, which separates the variability specifications from the feature specifications to allow reusing features in different contexts.
