VARY - Variability for You

Abstract

The VARY workshop took place on the first day of the MODELS conference week and brought together researchers and practitioners in the field of variability modeling. The workshop contained invited talks on empirics of MDD and reuse, and on the Common Variability Language standardization. The example session showed how variability modeling could be useful in e-commerce and multiple country business software. The generic result session showed a survey on variability modeling approaches and how to evolve variability definition when base model is changed. Finally the analysis session handled techniques for optimizing product validity checking and product line metrics. The ample time for discussions was easily filled and engaged many in the stable audience throughout the day. © 2012 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
