Description: Software development organizations are now discovering the efficiencies that can be achieved by architecting entire software product families together. In Software Architecture for Product Families, experts from one of the world's most advanced software domain engineering projects share in-depth insights about the techniques that work -- and those that don't. The book offers a solutions-oriented, case-study approach covering the entire development lifecycle, based on advanced work done by three of Europe's leading technology companies and their academic partners. Discover the challenges that drive companies to consider architecting product families, and the new problems they encounter in doing so. Master concepts and terms that can be used to describe the architecture of a product family; then learn how to assess that architecture, and transform it into working applications. The authors also present chapter-length, real-world case studies of domain engineering projects at Nokia, Philips, and ABB.
