Agile Software Product Lines, Deconstructed

Agile Software Product Lines, Deconstructed
There was much interest at this year's Software Product Line Conference in how to combine agile and product line techniques. Agile teams seek to address change one product at a time while product line organizations take an investment view by addressing change among a set of products. On the surface there are some seeming contradictions between the methods, but they may not be as different as they are sometimes portrayed. In this issue of Strategic Software Engineering I want to deconstruct product line and agile practices, compare the pieces, and make some suggestions about how to re-construct a hybrid method. I will do this in part by treating agility as a quality attribute of processes.
