Product Line Engineering (PLE) is becoming an increasingly important concept for companies trying to reduce lead time to market and build several variants of their product while minimizing parallel development efforts.
For example, it enables companies to manage various software artifacts according to configuration files, creating a “common backbone” on which variants can be designed. PLE provides an automated way to create, analyze and visualize the different product line architectures and configurations while assuring the overall consistency of the defined Generic Platform.
Here, we illustrate this principle in the Automotive domain, where car manufacturers define a generic physical platform that is used as a “common backbone” for various car variants design.
