Approaching the configuration of non-functional properties (NFPs) in traditional software
systems is not an easy task, addressing the configuration of these properties in software
product lines (SPLs) imposes even further challenges. Therefore, we have devised the
Feedback Approach, which extends the traditional SPL development techniques in order to
improve the configuration of NFPs. In this work we present the general guidelines of our
approach and also we show the feasibility of the idea by presenting a case study using the …
