Software Product Line Engineering (SPLE) is an approach for software reuse. It concerns to produce customized software products as atomic or composite services to be reused in SOA-based applications. A common set of artifacts is used to build these services in a planned and managed way. The main purpose of SPLE is to explore commonalities and variabilities. The SPLE approach provides a strategic software reuse that can produce quality Software as a Service (SaaS) while cutting cost and reducing time-to-market. This paper proposes a process to construct services as Software Product Lines by using Model Driven techniques. The process combines the use of maps, visual techniques for SPL modeling, especially features diagrams and MD techniques. In addition to the process, we have developed a tool to support map, feature, and class diagrams modeling.
