Software product line engineering is about producing a set of related products that share
more commonalities than variabilities. Feature models are widely used for variability and …

In the past few years, there has been a lot of research in the area of global placement. In
comparison, not much attention has been paid to the detailed placement problem. Existing …

Product lines are ubiquitous for managing variable systems. The variability of a product line
is typically described in terms of a feature model. Analyzing a feature model gives insight …

Abstract Feature Models (FMs) are a key artifact for variability and commonality
management in Software Product Lines (SPLs). In this context, the merging of FMs is being …

Feature models are one of the most important assets in software product line engineering
when capturing variability. Although the analyses of feature models was stated as …

Abstract Systems such as adaptative and context–aware ones must adapt themselves to
changing requirements at runtime. Modeling and implementing this kind of systems is a …

A Feature Model (FM) is a compact representation of all the products of a software product
line. The automated extraction of information from FMs is a thriving research topic involving …

Software product line (SPL) engineering is a cost-effective approach to develo** families
of similar products. Key to the success of this approach is to correctly scope the domain of …

Mass customization is the new frontier in business competition for both manufacturing and
service industries. To improve customer satisfaction, reduce lead-times and shorten costs …

Agent-oriented software engineering and software product lines are two promising software
engineering techniques. Recent research work has been exploring their integration, namely …
