Abstract
Software development companies are trying to produce their software products by development processes. However, software development companies have a difficulty on applying a development process to various software development domains. The difficulty like this happens because process tailoring is not a simple work. Process tailoring needs various experiences and involves an intimate knowledge of several aspects of software engineering, but there is a limit in improving the quality of software development processes which a process engineer defines with heuristic way by relying on experience or knowledge of the individual. To ameliorate these problems, we proposed a variability analysis method with cases applying domain analysis technique on software product line to make it possible to reduce the dependency on knowledge or experience of a process engineer in the software development company for process tailoring. If a process engineer tries to apply a suggested method for process tailoring in the software development company, a process engineer can obtain reusable process assets through identifying variabilities in existing process assets.
