A Systematic Mapping Study of Search-Based Software Engineering for Software Product Lines

by Roberto E. Lopez Herrejon, Lukas Linsbauer, Alexander Egyed
Abstract:
Search-Based Software Engineering (SBSE) is an emerging discipline that focuses on the application of search-based optimization techniques to software engineering problems. Software Product Lines (SPLs) are families of related software systems whose members are distinguished by the set of features each one provides. SPL development practices have proven benefits such as improved software reuse, better customization, and faster time to market. A typical SPL usually involves a large number of systems and features, a fact that makes them attractive for the application of SBSE techniques which are able to tackle problems that involve large search spaces.
