Recently for software development productivity a lot of researches in the field of software engineering hove focuses on the component-based software product lines which allows the reuse of forger-granularity software components Its purpose is to develop the specific software application of quality more rapidly by instantiating and assembling the components populated in software product line assets The essential part to build the component-based software product lines is the quality of components, and one of the most important features determining the quality of components is 'reconfigurability' Component reconfigurability means the extent to which the reusers can change the functions and architecture of the component according to their context and environment. This paper proposes the component code generation technique which provides the reconfigurability at the time of code generation using The feature diagram and XML/XSLT technologies The approach of this paper allows the component reusers to get automatically their own component source code by providing only the values of variabilities represented in the feature diagram of the component family. The real world example, the code generation system for o list container family, shows the applicability of the feature model and XML related technologies in the area of the generative programming. Our approach should be basis to build the component based software product lines and extensible to support the larger graularity components.

Traceability targets provision of information to stakeholders required for analyzing impacts among artifacts due to changes. Unlike single product development, in software product line developing the family of products the complexity of maintaining and managing traceability between two life cycles, domain and application engineering is so high. Accordingly, variability traceability management approach centred on orthogonal variability model that manages variability separated from development artifacts has been conceptually proposed, but its efficiency has not verified yet. This paper verifies whether orthogonal variability model based traceability can provide required traceability through an example. As the results, the OVM-based variability tracing method supports well to narrow down artifacts affected by the changes. However, the method does not support tracing the exact artifacts or exact part of an artifact affected by the change.

실행 환경 및 상황에 맞게 스스로 소프트웨어의 구성과 서비스를 변경시키기 위한 적응형 소프트웨어의 개발을 위해서는 변경 대상 및 변경 기법의 정의가 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 소프트웨어의 구성요소 및 기능을 실시간에 변경하기 위해 제품계열 방법에서 주로 사용되는 Information Hiding 기반의 가변성 관리 기법과 Parameterization 기반의 가변성 관리기법을 사용한다. 두 방법을 사용하면 실행 과정에 영향을 주지 않으면서 소프트웨어의 구성요소를 변경하거나 특성을 customizing할 수 있다.

There has been a growing amount of research on combining Agile methods and software reuse. Most of it introduces Agile into software product line rather than software reuse into Scrum method. Meanwhile, some assets such as backlogs and incremental artifacts in Scrum development are reusable. In this paper, we identify a backlog binder that aggregates reusable Scrum assets and proposes a backlog binder reuse technique. In addition, we can apply the proposed technique and show prototyping of backlog binder reuse in job matching applications.

Black-box testing needs to prepare fitting test data, execute software, and examine the result. If we test software effectively, not only selecting test cases but also representing test cases are important. In static testing effectiveness of testing activities also depends on how to represent test cases and checklist to validate. This paper suggests a method for finding ineffective critical test cases and reengineering them. An experiment of reengineering digital set-top box software shows the process and results of checking effectiveness and conformance of current test cases and patching test cases. The result shows how much save the test time and improve test coverage by reengineering test cases. Methods of reuse and restructuring test cases are also studied to fit into embedded product-line software.

Evolutionary operation is useful to improve on-line full-scale manufacturing processes by systematically changing the levels of the process variables without jeopardizing the product. This paper presents a system design for an evolutionary operation software called 'evolutionary optimizer'. The system design is based primarily on data flow diagram. Evolutionary optimizer consists of four modules: factorial design module, many variables module, mixture Production module, and mean/dispersion module.

The semiconductor industry develops and maintains software embedded in computer-controlled tools and facilities, to process and manufacture high-tech products. Upgrading embedded softwares for semiconductor processing robots and machinery is one of the basic activities that must be performed in order to maintain product quality and integrity. Maintenance and enhancement of embedded software consume a major portion of the total life cycle cost of a system. However, the area has been given little attention in the literature. 502 maintenance and enhancement cases, related to embedded softwares in wafer processing machines, were selected at random for analysis. Practical implications are also discussed.

Component-based development(CBD) has acquired a substantial acceptance in both academia and industry as an effective inter-organizational reuse technology. A component framework in product line engineering(PLE) which consists of related components, connectors and their semantics has a greater potential for reusability than components. In frameworks, components are glued with association, dependency and connections. Problems occur like affecting the implementation code of components when they are glued and replaced because the association and dependency relationships between COTS components which are acquired for application development do not match exactly. Especially, a connector may not only connect related components, but also mate partially-matched COTS components fit together. However, little has been studied to date about connectors that can be used practically. In this paper, we present a meta-model for connectors and show how a connector can be designed and implemented in practice. We propose five main patterns of connectors. Proposed major patterns Provide design guidelines for practical and efficient connector configuration based on component framework. And also, applying techniques and applied case studies of the major patterns show greatly increased applicability and reusability of the component without component modification.

Services system which has been emerging as a new way of application development utilizes services as fundamental units for developing a system. Services system can offer services within web environment as well as the ubiquitous environment where mobile devices are connected to wired or wireless network. In order to provide the functionality that meets users' requirements, the most appropriate service should be selected among candidate services by taking requests and context information into account. Therefore, it is important that the service system should provide services to users by dynamically adapting to users' requirements and context information. Since different users request same functionality with different context information, one service can be differently offered to users so that variability can happen to the service systems. Most researches on context-aware systems have a tendency to solve dynamic adaptation by using more or less ad hoc manner In this paper, we consider various types of services which are performed according to context information as variability and propose adaptable architecture by applying concepts of product line architecture in order to deal with variabilities systematically.

Many of today's businesses need IT system's flexibility for on-demand business which can be rapidly adapted to environment changes. Service oriented architecture (SOA) provides the infrastructure which makes business flexibility possible under the on-demand operating environment. Therefore, to satisfy these requirements, new approach for assuring business flexibility and enhancing reuse is needed. In this paper, we propose an approach for developing a business process family model (BPFM) in which the variabilities in business process family can be explicitly represented by using the variability analysis method of software product line. In addition, we describe the supporting tool for this approach. It can model the BPFM and generate automatically BPMs through decision and pruning process from BPFM. By using our approach, the business and its IT system can correspond to business environment changes rapidly and efficiently.
