Context: Software product line engineering has proven to be an efficient paradigm to
developing families of similar software systems at lower costs, in shorter time, and with …

The use of domain-specific languages (DSLs) has become a successful technique in the
development of complex systems. Consequently, nowadays we can find a large variety of …

Software product lines (SPLs) and software ecosystems (SECOs) represent families of
closely related software systems in terms of configurable variable assets. Delta modeling is …

To safely evolve a software product line, it is important to have a notion of product line
refinement that assures behavior preservation of the original product line products. So in this …

Programming languages are complex systems that are usually implemented as monolithic
interpreters and compilers. In recent years, researchers and practitioners gained interest in …

Software product lines (SPLs) and software ecosystems (SECOs) encompass a family of
closely related software systems in terms of common and variable assets that are configured …

The ever-growing need for customization creates a need to maintain software systems in
many different variants. To avoid having to maintain different copies of the same model …

Abstract Domain-specific languages are constructed to provide modelling capabilities
tailored to a specific domain. Sometimes, languages are developed many times, typically to …

The increase in productivity implied by model-driven software product line engineering is
weakened by the complexity exposed to the user having to manage a multi-variant model …

Abstract Product Line Engineering is becoming a key practice in many software
development environments where complex systems are developed for multiple customers …
