Prior Attempts in App. Modernization
 Conversion projects
 Natural to Java
 Fail
 Case tools (for j2ee)
 Versata (pseudo case tool)
 Poor customization
 Proprietary solution
 No evolution
 J2EE
 1 project in production
 Very expensive
 No trained people
 Complexity

Every project is similar
Am I reinventing the
wheel?

The Paradigm Shift
 For several decades, the software industry has created software systems to
support the needs of its customers, but...
 Despite all that experience, however, quality and productivity are not improving quickly.
 We realize about the same level of productivity today as we did 10 years agoStandish group
 Confront a group of developers or project managers, and ask them if they think
they are successful in building software today.
 They almost always tend to laugh a little
 Few teams regularly reuse solutions created in the past
 We can see that we have a predictable problem on every new project

Software Factory /Product Line
Software asset inputs: a collection of software assets – such as requirements, source
code components, test cases, architecture, and documentation – that can be
configured and composed in different ways to create all of the products in a product
line
Production mechanism and process:
the means for composing and
configuring products from the
software asset inputs. Product
decisions are used during production
to determine which software asset
inputs to use and how to configure
the variation points within those
assets.
Decision model and product
decisions: The decision model
describes optional and variable
features for the products in the
product line. Each product in the
product line is uniquely defined by
its product decisions - choices for
each of the optional and variable
features in the decision model.
Software product outputs: the collection of all products
that can be produced for the product line. The scope
of the product line is determined by the set of software
product outputs that can be produced from the
software assets and decision model.

Summary
 RBD (egl)
Productive, easier than Java J2EE
Your “legacy” people will be grateful
Don’t worry about how will be j2ee in the future (IBM will do for you)
 But..
You must invest in a software factory framework (or adopt one as AMC).
Invest on adapting tooling for MDA (RSM, RDA) and you will have
EGL3.

COSTAISA AMC, How can we help you?
 There are a variety of approaches for transitioning to, or adopting, a new software
product line approach , but we recommend…
 Use an incremental transition strategy
 Lifecycle strategy, product strategy, subsytem, people.
 Create a Pilot as a catalyst for change
 The pilot helps to build momentum by demonstrating to managers and engineers a
practical, operational example of software product line practice and the tangible benefits
it delivers.
 Choose an expert to help define your best approach for getting started (and become one)
 By leveraging our technology, pragmatic methods and proven expertise you can reduce
your effort transition.
 Combining the right tooling (IBM) and an intense, accelerated, hands-on program that
brings leading-edge software product line development methods, knowledge and
experience into your organization (AMC).
