{{Short description|Domain analysis method}}

'''Feature oriented ___domain analysis (FODA)''' is a [[___domain analysis]] method which introduced [[feature model]]ling to [[___domain engineering]]. FODA was developed in 1990 following several [[U.S. Government]] research projects. Its concepts have been regarded as critically advancing [[software engineering]] and [[software reuse]].

==History==

Feature-oriented ___domain analysis was first developed by the [[Software Engineering Institute]] in 1990.<ref name="Cza 44">Czarnecki, p.44</ref> In the initial technical report, a study performed determined that feature oriented ___domain analysis was not only beneficial, but was described as a "necessary first step" for [[software reuse]].<ref name="Kang 99">Kang, p.9993</ref> The report introduced the concept of [[feature model]]s to [[___domain engineering]] in an effort to represent the standard features within the family of systems in the ___domain as well as the relationships between those features.<ref name="Kang 42">Kang, p.42</ref> Since then, feature models have been characterized as "the greatest contribution of ___domain engineering to software engineering".<ref name="Cza 82">Czarnecki, p.82</ref>

Much of the work leading up to the development of FODA was sponsored by the [[U.S. Department of Defense]] through research programs related to software reuse during the late 1980s. FODA was developed as a comprehensive analysis and refinement of technology developed from 1983&ndash;1990.<ref name="Cza 57">Czarnecki, p.57</ref> While some aspects of FODA have changed, and it has become integrated with [[model-driven engineering]], FODA is still known as the method that initially introduced feature models to ___domain engineering.<ref name="Cza 44" />
