Analysing Feature Model Changes using FMDiff

Evolving a large scale, highly variable systems is a challenging task. For such a system, evolution operations often require to update consistently both their implementation and its feature model. In this context, the evolution of the feature model closely follows the evolution of the system. The purpose of this work is to show that fine-grained...

Realizing Service Migration in Industry - Lessons Learned

In this paper, we present two descriptive case studies covering the re-engineering and further evolution of adopting service oriented architecture (SOA) in industry. The first case was carried out for a company in the transport sector with an application portfolio of over 700 systems. The second case study was conducted for an organization in...
