    Decision support for adopting SPLE with transit-PL
    (ACM, 2013) Kalender, Mert Emin; Tüzün, E.; Tekinerdoğan, Bedir
    It is generally acknowledged that the decision to adopt a software product line engineering (SPLE) approach needs to be performed carefully due to the di• erent risks involved in taking such an important decision. To mitigate the potential risks of the transition to SPLE, several studies have been proposed that include many di• erent rules for analyzing the feasibility of the SPLE adoption and the selection of transition process. However, it is not easy to apply these manually and likewise provide a proper decision with the corresponding justification. In this paper, we propose the tool Transit-PL, a web based decision support system for analyzing the feasibility of SPLE for an organization and selecting the appropriate transition strategy. Transit-PL provides a framework to build particular decision support system for selected strategies using di• erent types of questions and corresponding rules and set of answers. Copyright 2013 ACM.

    Multidimensional classification approach for defining product line engineering transition strategies
    (Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg, 2010) Tekinerdoğan, Bedir; Tüzün, E.; Şaykol, E.
    It is generally acknowledged that the transitioning process to a product line engineering approach is not trivial and as such requires a planned transition process. Different classifications of transition strategies have been proposed in the literature. It appears that these classification schemes are usually based on a single dimension. However, the adoption of a transition strategy is dependent on various criteria and very often it is not easy to characterize the required transition strategy. An appropriate characterization of the transition strategy is important for carrying out the right transition activities and steps to provide an operational product line engineering approach. In this paper, we first provide a conceptual model for defining the concepts related to transition strategies and then propose a multi-dimensional classification approach that aims to provide a more complete view on transition strategies. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
