摘要:Software product line engineering is an approach that develops and maintains families ofproducts while taking advantage of their common aspects and predicted variabilities. Indeed, softwareproduct lines (SPL) are an important means for implementing software variability which is the ability ofa system to be efficiently extended, changed, customized or configured for use in a particular context.Variability needs in software are constantly increasing because variability moves from mechanics andhardware to software and design decisions are delayed as long as economically feasible. Numerous SPLconstruction approaches are proposed. Different in nature, these approaches have nevertheless somecommon disadvantages. We have proceeded to an in-depth analysis of existing approaches for theconstruction of Software Product Line within a comparison framework in order to identify theirdrawbacks. We suggest overcoming these drawbacks by an improvement of the tool support for theseapproaches and for their interactivity with their users. We propose to study a particular software productline which is ERP as experimentation.
