Abstract
In the research of commonalities and variations of domain modeling, feature modeling is proved to be an effective and widely used method. But how to visualize the feature models in user interfaces remains to be a problem. In studying the data processing domain, we design rendering rules to combine features to user visible engines in GUI XML and UML based Architecture Description Language (ADL). Furthermore, we visualize the process in our IDE tool based on Eclipse.
