The integrated software product line model
Makoto Yoshida, N. lwane, Y. Matsubara · 2005
In the industry, how to acquire customer's needs and how to reflect them quickly into the software products are important issues. Recently, several architecture analysis and design methodologies have been developed and evaluated, and the software product line is receiving increasing attention for cost reduction in the software development. Combining the architectural requirements with the software product line systems is at the very center of what the software industry has to do in today's fast-changing environment. We developed the toolkit which automatically generates software programs from specifications. The toolkit was extended to the software product line system, and connected to the questionnaire system. This paper describes an integrated software product line model. A KITS (knowledge based integrated questionnaire-software product line) model which integrates software product line systems with questionnaire systems through a knowledge base system is proposed. It produce the efficient customized software systems while offering a substantial savings in time and cost.
