SPLConfig: Product Configuration in Software Product Line
نویسندگان
چکیده
Software product line (SPL) is a set of software systems that share a common set of features satisfying the specific needs of a particular market segment. A feature represents an increment in functionality relevant to some stakeholders. SPLs commonly use a feature model to capture and document common and varying features. The key challenge of using feature models is to derive a product configuration that satisfies all business and customer requirements. To address this challenge, this paper presents a tool, called SPLConfig, to support business during product configuration in SPL. Based on feature models, SPLConfig automatically finds an optimal product configuration that maximizes the customer satisfaction. Demo Video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLHtIY8oHT8

A Configuration Management Model for Software Product Line
Software Product Line has proved to be an effective approach to benefit from software reuse. Configuration management, an integral part of any software development activity, takes on a special significance in software product line context. This is due to the special property of software product line, in which the core assets are shared by all products. In this paper, we compare the existing con...
متن کاملConfiguration Management in a Software Product Line
Software product lines offer a comprehensive strategy for successfully building products. This strategy also greatly expands the number and types of artifacts upon which that success depends. Managing these artifacts over the lifetime of the product line requires a carefully structured set of configurations and a rigorously enforced change management process. In this paper we present an approac...
متن کاملConfiguration Challenges & Issues: A Configuration Process Model to Reduce the Complexity of Software Product Line
Configuration of software product line is often a more laborious process than anticipated before. One major difficulty with software product line engineering is unavailability of standardize configuration process model that reduces the adverse affects of configuration related issues and problems such as requirements conflicts of same/multiple stages, complexity of conflicts resolution, adhoc te...
متن کاملAn XVCL-based Approach to Software Product Line Development
In recent years, software product line approach has emerged as a promising way to improve software productivity and quality. How to effectively handle variants (including functional variants, variant design decisions, implementation-level variants) has been a major challenge in product line development. We apply XVCL (XMLbased Variant Configuration Language), a variability mechanism based on fr...
متن کاملUsing a Configurator for Modelling and Configuring Software Product Lines based on Feature Models
We show how WeCoTin, an academic prototype product configurator originally designed for non-software products, can be used to create and edit feature models of software product lines. Further, we show that WeCoTin enables the easy configuration of software product lines, i.e., generating descriptions of valid products in the product line.
