William J. Bolander, Paul Clements · Insight · 2021
ABSTRACT Feature‐Based Product Line Engineering (PLE) is a well‐known approach for efficiently engineering product lines, which numerous case studies have shown to yield substantial benefits in cost, quality, and time to market. This article presents an approach for a necessary ingredient of successful PLE: Handling the temporal dimension, which is concerned with managing artifacts as they change and evolve. The approach relies on a foundation of proven traditional change control techniques but shows how they apply in the context of Feature‐Based PLE.
