What we do
Addressing challenges triggered by the inherent variability of a software product family is what we do.
From design-time to run-time, we build approaches and tools to capitalize on existing systems to initiate a Software Product Line, to address the evolution of variability and to fit our approaches and tools to users skills.
Thanks to our industrial partners, we put to the test our ideas in heterogeneous industrial environments ranging from Induction Hob Firmwares to Train Control Systems.
Topics: Software Engineering, Software Product Lines, Model Driven engineering, search-based Software Engineering, Information Retrieval, Empirical Software Engineering.
