SPLC 2009 (13th International Software Product Line Conference)
Airport Marriott,
San Francisco, CA, USA
Organizations Need Software Product Lines Now More Than Ever
The Software Product Line Conference (SPLC) is the premier forum for product line researchers, practitioners, and educators to present and discuss current and emerging trends. SPLC provides the product line community with opportunities to hear industry leaders’ real-world experiences and researchers’ latest ideas, and to learn from both. Now in its 13th year, SPLC 2009 will be held August 24 – 28 in San Francisco, California.
Effectively using software product lines improves time to market, cost, productivity, and quality. They also enable rapid market entry and flexible response. And, using software product lines simplifies software maintenance and enhancement.
Product line approaches apply practices, processes, technology, and tools aimed at strategic, planned reuse – reuse of technical and business artifacts throughout the life cycle. The success of product line approaches depends on overall organizational goals in alignment with the implementation of appropriate product line practices and technologies. This strong interrelationship between organizational concerns and engineering practices makes working and researching the field of software product lines as interesting as it is challenging.
If your organization develops software, you need to explore the benefits software product lines deliver. If you already work with software product lines, you need to ensure that every potential advantage is reached and risk mitigated.
