Abstract
We investigate the suitability of statistical model checking techniques for analysing quantitative prop-erties of software product line models with probabilistic aspects. For this purpose, we enrich thefeature-oriented language FLANwith action rates, which specify the likelihood of exhibiting par-ticular behaviour or of installing features at a specific moment or in a specific order. The enrichedlanguage (called PFLAN) allows us to specify models of software product lines with probabilis-tic configurations and behaviour, e.g. by considering a PFLANsemantics based on discrete-timeMarkov chains. The Maude implementation of PFLANis combined with the distributed statisticalmodel checker MultiVeStA to perform quantitative analyses of a simple product line case study. Thepresented analyses include the likelihood of certain behaviour of interest (e.g. product malfunction-ing) and the expected average cost of products
