Software Configuration Management in Software Product Lines: Results of a Systematic Mapping Study
Abstract:
Software product lines (SPL) are used in industry to achieve more efficient software development. However, efficient configuration management system is crucial for the success of any SPL. Very few approaches are found on software configuration management (SCM) in SPL. This study aims at surveying existing research on SCM in SPL in order to identify useful approaches and needs for future research. A systematic mapping study was conducted to find as much literature as possible between 2010-2020, and the twenty three papers found were classified according to context, research and contribution type. Most research effort is spent on product variability (87%) with contributions such as proposed tools and models (70%), sketched out in detail but not yet evaluated, i.e. solution proposals (63.33%). According to the results found, more validation and evaluation research of the SCM is needed to provide a better foundation for SPL.
