1. VARIABILITY IN SOFTWARE PRODUCT LINE ARCHITECTURES VARI-ARCH 2010 ECSA 4th European Conference on Software Architecture Copenhagen, August 23, 2010

2. Welcome!

3. Context Software Architecture Software Product Lines

4. Context Software Architecture Software Product Lines VARI-ARCH

5. Focus Software Architecture Software Product Lines Variability Modeling  Capture variability explicitly Variability Modeling  Capture variability explicitly Architectural Views  Deal with multiple stakeholders/concerns Architectural Views  Deal with multiple stakeholders/concerns VARI-ARCH How to bridge?

6. Workshop Objectives  What are the implications of considering variability in view-based software architectures?  How can variability modeling benefit from a view- based perspective in software architecture?  Bridging: How can variability and architecture views be integrated?

7. Presentations: 3 questions  “In your work, what are the main stakeholders and their concerns with respect to variability?”  Relation stakeholders – variability  “With respect to which architectural models do you consider variability?”  Relation architectural models – variability  “How do you integrate variability into a view-based architecture description?”  Relation architectural views – variability
