More cost-effective and agile as they are than traditional development methods for producing families of similar products, SPLMs still seem to be heavy weight in nature. In SPLMs, significant up-front commitments are involved in development of a flexible product platform, which will be modified into a range of products sharing common features. Agile Methods (AMs) share similar goals with SPLMs, e.g., on rapidly delivering high quality software that meets the changing needs of stakeholders. However, they appear to differ significantly practices. The purpose of this work is to compare Agile and Software Product line approaches from fundamental goals\/principles, engineering, software quality assurance, sand project management perspectives, etc. The results of the study can be used to determine the feasibility of tailoring a software product line approach with Agile practices, resulting in a lighter-weight approach that provides mass customization, reduced time-to-market, and improved customer satisfaction.<\/p>","DOI":"10.4018\/ijkss.2014100102","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,2,26]],"date-time":"2015-02-26T17:41:40Z","timestamp":1424972500000},"page":"17-34","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Adding More Agility to Software Product Line Methods"],"prefix":"10.4018","volume":"5","author":[{"given":"Kun","family":"Tian","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Wisconsin, Platteville, WI, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2432","reference":[{"key":"ijkss.2014100102-0","unstructured":"A Framework for Software Product Line Practice.
