Looking for a new methodology of modular software development, this paper proposes JPI FM, that is, Feature Models (FM) with Join Point Interfaces (JPI) of Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) as the basis of the Feature-Oriented Programming (FOP) + JPI methodology. Therefore, this paper describes the advantages and details of FOP and AOP JPI as individual paradigms and their symbiosis to produce modular software. As an application example, MC JPI is used over a classic FOP example to visualize traditional FM components, and special associations or constraints between features. Additionally, this paper describes the advantages of JPI FM and the differences with respect to some previous research works to support aspect-oriented modeling principles of JPI. This paper concludes that JPI allows modularization on feature models, and thus this approach seems promising. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
