Abstract:

The notion of software as a service promises agile, flexible and low maintenance system development through a dynamic runtime architecture that allows third-party functionality and capability to be added on demand. There is growing research interest in how service-orientation can be adopted a means for enhancing agility and flexibility in product line engineering. However, integrating service-orientation in product line engineering poses a number of challenges. These include difficulty in identifying services, ensuring services reflect user needs, and determining configurations of services that are relevant in different user contexts. This paper describes an approach for service-oriented product line development that integrates feature-oriented engineering with a self-managing consumer-centred negotiation process to address these challenges.

1. Introduction

Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) provides the conceptual framework for realizing service-oriented systems by allowing software systems to be dynamically composed and reconfigured using services discoverable on the network [1]. From a product-line engineering viewpoint this model of deployment promises significant benefits over the traditional model of software deployment as a product. Firstly, the dynamic nature of SOA means it can support user needs and expectations in a continuously changing environment [21]. Secondly, services can be combined in different configurations and contexts simplifying the deployment of product variants tailored to the needs of different customers, but mostly based on the same core services [2].
