Requirements on Tailoring Product Line Development Processes

Product lines offer a high level of reuse and have been successfully used in the industry [4] and are an option to modernize software systems. The continuous derivation of applications based on a product line requires the continuous change and adaptation of the product line to new and changed customer requirements without breaking existing product line application. This is a steady modernizatio...

Goal Model Integration for Tailoring Product Line Development Processes

Many companies rely on the promised benefits of product lines, targeting systems between fully custom made software and mass products. Such customized mass products account for a large number of applications automatically derived from a product line. This results in the special importance of product lines for companies with a large part of their product portfolio based on their product line. Th...

Tailoring Use Cases for Product Line Modeling

Use cases are used for single system requirements engineering to capture requirements from an external point of view. When utilizing use cases for product line modeling they cannot be used as is but they have to be extended with a variability mechanism. Stereotypes can be used as this variability mechanism for use case diagrams and tags can be used for textual use cases. In this paper we descri...

Groupware Architecture for Requirements Processes in New Product Development

An organization’s ability to create successful products depends on how extensively it collects, analyzes, and utilizes requirements information in its product development. Recent advances in groupware technologies allow such information to be shared more effectively in distributed organizations; thus, these technologies hold considerable potential as means of shortening the cycle time and impro...
