Software product line engineering is an
industrially validated methodology for developing software products and
software-intensive systems and services faster, at lower costs, and with
better quality and higher end-user satisfaction.
The software product line engineering body of knowledge has mainly been
created by the software engineering community in order to enable
industrialized software production.
It welcomes contributions from the mainstream product line research and
especially encourages authors with a strong software engineering focus to
interrelate their work with the relevant work.
Organizations often fail in leveraging the product line strategy partly
because the extant body of knowledge provides them with limited and
fragmented guidance for adopting and enacting the strategy.
Therefore, this minitrack welcomes contributions including but not limited
to:
-
Business models and strategies for product lines
-
Economic valuation of product lines
-
Organizational and process designs for product lines
-
Knowledge management practices and systems for product lines
-
Service systems and their implications for product lines
-
International standardization initiatives related to product lines
-
Theory building and/or validation from the viewpoints of design and/or
behavioral science
The minitrack is also very interested in industrial experiences in product
line engineering if they can be used to validate or challenge existing
theories and/or create new theories relevant to the software product line
engineering body of knowledge.
