Resumo

The development of embedded systems requires methodologies to enable the integration of different levels of abstraction and able to deal with functional and non-functional requirements. Many methodologies are proposed like Software Product Line (SPL) and Model-driven Engineering (MDE), in order to reduce the complexity of the development process. This paper presents the use of a software product line approach for a digital magnifier development. The design flow starts from the specification using a SPL approach and follows a systematic set of steps to allow the application synthesis of desktop and embedded versions.
