Software engineering area the software product lines (SPL) have emerged as a paradigm aimed at minimizing costs and effort on the development of new systems by means of reusing techniques as the main tool. In order to deal with the inherent complexity of domain modeling, the SPL development contains a set of variability management activities which involve the identification and definition of the variabilities of SPL platforms. At the same time, these variability activities must be based on specific variability models which will define the rules and restrictions when the SPLs are implemented. Thus, in this work, we propose an extension of previous work in this area, in which we had defined semantic resources together with a structured way of moving between artifacts and representations, which led us to an annotative as well as compositional approach. In particular, we propose a  semi-automatic software component derivation process from these semantic resources in order tofacilitate software composition
