We invite Technical Paper Submissions for the following categories:
Research Papers describing original results of theoretical or conceptual work in the field of software product line engineering. A research paper should clearly describe the problem that has been tackled, the state of the art with respect to the problem, the solution that is suggested and the potential - or even better the evaluated - benefits of the contribution.
Experience Reports describing the application of software product line technology accompanied by a critical review of (positive and negative) experience. An experience report specifies clearly the context in which the experience was gathered (application domain, size of product line, organizational setting etc.) as well as collected empirical data and/or lessons learned.
Topics of Interest include, but are not limited to:
- Agile product line engineering
- Application derivation
- Architectural styles and patterns for product lines
- Definition and scoping of product lines
- Model-driven engineering, domain-specific languages, and code generation
- Evolution and maintenance of product lines and product line assets
- Product line lifecycle management
- Requirements engineering
- Techniques and tools for product line adoption
- Testing, modeling & formal verification of product lines
- Theoretical and empirical economic models of product lines
- Variability modeling and variant management
Submission Guidelines: Papers should be submitted in PDF format. The results described must be unpublished and must not be under review elsewhere. Submitted papers must conform to the IEEE proceedings 8.5x 11", two-column format and may not exceed ten pages (incl. all text, figures, references, and appendices).
Accepted Papers: Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings by the IEEE. In addition, selected papers will appear in a special issue of Elsevier’s Journal of Systems and Software.
