SPLC 2009 - SPLC.net l Software Product Line Conferences

SPLC 2009 | The 13th International Software Product Line Conference
experiencing order-of-magnitude improvements in cost, time to market, staff productivity,
and quality of the deployed products.
This tutorial introduces the essential activities and underlying practice areas of software
product line development. It is aimed at those in an organization who are in a position to
influence the decision to adopt a product line approach and those in a position to carry out
that decision. Anyone who can act as a technology change agent will benefit from this
tutorial. The tutorial reviews the basic concepts of software product lines, discusses the
costs and benefits of product line adoption, introduces the SEI Framework for Software
Product Line Practice, and describes approaches to applying the practices of the framework.
Presenter Biography:
Patrick Donohoe is a senior member of the technical staff at the Software Engineering
Institute, working in the Research, Technology, and System Solutions Program. His current
interests are analysis modeling and production planning for software product lines. He has
participated in several SEI Product Line Technical Probes and architecture evaluations and
is also an instructor in the SEI’s Software Product Line Curriculum.

Systems and Software Product Line Engineering
with the SPL Lifecycle Framework
Charles Krueger, BigLever Software, USA
Mainstream forces are driving software product line (SPL) approaches to take a more
holistic perspective that is deeply integrated into the systems and software engineering
lifecycle. These forces illustrate that SPL challenges will not be solved at any one stage in
the product engineering lifecycle, nor will they be solved in independent and disparate silos
in each of the different stages of the lifecycle. We describe a response to these forces—the
SPL Lifecycle Framework. The motivation for this technology framework is to ease the
integration of tools, assets, and processes across the full systems and software development
lifecycle.
In this tutorial, we explore how the SPL Lifecycle Framework provides all product line
engineers—including systems analysts, requirements engineers, architects, modelers,
developers, build engineers, document writers, configuration managers, test engineers,
