Reactive and Iterative Evolution of Model-based Product Lines

Abstract—Industrial challenges in product line evolution sug-gest a flexible and iterative approach that integrates domain and application engineering activities. We present our ongoing and planned research addressing the evolution of model-based product lines. In particular, we propose an iterative process and initial tool support for product line evolution. Our work is based on an analysis of industrial challenges in product line evolution. The paper outlines the research method and sum-marizes the planned contributions. I
