Abstract

This case study of an insulin pump is to describe our solution of the following difficulties. Firstly, how to model features to obtain a family of products. Secondly, how to handle complex constraints and synchronization of components when composing features. Thirdly, how to construct the continuous environment for the individual features as well as for the composed system.

This research was supported by the NSFC (No. 61602293), and the STCSM (No. 15YF1403900).
