Abstract : The problem of configuring a variability model is widespread in
many different domains. Renault has developed its technology internally to model vehicle
diversity. This technology relies on the approach known as knowledge compilation to
explore the configurations space.
However, the growing variability and complexity of the vehicles' range hardens the
space representation problem and may impact performance requirements. This paper tackles
these issues by exploiting symmetries that represent isomorphic parts in the configuration
space. The extensive experiments we conducted on datasets from Renault show our
approach's robustness and effectiveness: the achieved gain is a reduction of 52.13%
in space representation and 49.81% in processing time on average.in processing time on
average.
