Where the big bucks (will) come from – Implementing Product Line Engineering for Railway Rolling Stock
Hugo Guillermo Chalé Góngora, François Greugny · INCOSE International Symposium · 2017
Abstract This paper presents a “mid‐term” return of experience form ALSTOM Rolling Stock on its implementation of Product Line Engineering (PLE). It describes the journey we have undertaken to implement PLE, the challenges we have had to face and the manner in which we are finding our way (most of the time deliberately, sometimes fortuitously) to define a profitable reuse strategy and to structure our approach on PLE. The paper also presents some encouraging intermediate results and concludes with the perspectives and the future challenges in our search for Product Line Systems Engineering excellence.
