Product Line Architectures
Abstract
Today's software design methodologies are aimed at one-of-a-kind applications, designs are expressed in terms of objects and classes, and software must be coded manually. We argue that future software development will be very different and will center around product-line architectures (i.e., designs for families of related applications), refinements (a generalization of today's components), and software plug-and-play (a codeless form of programming).
