Introduction to the SEI Framework for Software Product Line Practice
Event for Byron Workman
Software product lines have emerged as a new software development paradigm of great importance. A software product line is a set of software intensive systems sharing a common, managed set of features, that satisfy the specific needs of a particular market segment or mission and that are developed from a common set of core assets in a prescribed way.
Organizations developing a portfolio of products as a software product line are experiencing order-of-magnitude improvements in cost, time to market, staff productivity, and quality of the deployed products. A product line succeeds because the commonalities shared by the software products can be exploited to achieve economies of production.
The SEI Framework for Software Product Line Practice is a web-based document that describes essential activities and practices that organizations must master in order to successfully adopt a product line approach.
Webinar attendees will gain a basic understanding of
* how the framework codifies existing best practices for software product line
* show the software engineering, technical management, and organizational management practice areas of the framework support the three essential activities of software product line development
