We start the academic posts series with the glossary of terms of the methodology.

AOP
Aspect-oriented programming is a programming paradigm which allows the separation of cross-cutting concerns. Different aspects, such as security, accounting log, notifications, etc. can be defined in isolated areas. The final comprehensive behavior of the system would be obtained using a weaving process.

Domain

DSL
Domain Specific Language. Programming language designed to represent the concepts of a given domain. It can be a textual or graphical.
FM
Feature Model. Model to represent the communes and optional parts that can have a product of a product line. Used in PLE.
FW
Framework. A software framework is a reusable software platform to develop software applications. It is an abstraction where its generic functionality can be selectively changed by additional code providing application-specific software.
LW
Language Workbench. Tool that allows defining and using formal languages: abstract and concrete syntax and static and dynamic semantics. It could be consider as a tool for designing the language, the compiler and the IDE.
MDA
Model Driven Architecture. OMG standard for software development based on model. It can be considered as a particular case of MDSD.
MDSD
Model-driven Software Development. Programming paradigm focused on software development at the level of the models.
Meta-model
Rules, buildings, relationships, etc. that define the models that can build in a given domain.
PLE
Product Line Engineering. Discipline for the creation of software through product lines (SPL).
