Abstract
Service-oriented architecture (SOA) enables the identification of services aligned with business process (BP) and the ability to address multiple execution environments. However, SOA lacks on support for high customization and systematic planned reuse. This problem prompted the search for combining SOA with software product lines (SPL). Therefore, SPL can be used to help SOA, more specially in business process model (BPM), to achieve benefits such as productivity gains, decreased development costs and effort and improved time to market segment needs. It helps to manage service component bundles dynamically according to identified commonalities and variabilities. In this paper, we present our approach to manage the variability in SOA by extracting feature model from different business process models.
