ver the last decade, the management of variability has become a major concern in the development, maintenance and evolution of software–intensive systems, especially in software product line engineering.<br>To support variability management, numerous variability modeling techniques have been proposed both by academia and industry. Many of them have their roots in feature modelling1 or orthogonal variability modelling2 but significant contributions also have come from related areas including configuration management, domain analysis, requirements engineering, formal methods and generative programming.<br>Previous workshops have already addressed variability modeling (like the ones at SPLC ’06, SPLC ’04, ICSE ’03 and the Groningen workshops), but research in the field is still fragmented.<br>We need to more thoroughly understand how the different variability modelling approaches complement each other and how we can improve and integrate these approaches to better meet the needs of practitioners.<br><b>Keywords:</b> * Compare current approaches,<br>* Identify research challenges,<br>* Establish a research agenda for variability modeling.<br>
