Foreword by Don Batory
Jay Misra once told me “The quality of a research area is measured by the quality of its teaching materials” (Misra 2004). A corollary is “and by the quality of its tools.” Although the term software product lines (SPLs) is about 20 years old, the concept of SPLs goes back 50 years, known back then as SYStem GENeration (SYSGEN) for the custom creation of operating systems (Wikipedia 2017). It was given a more visionary form by McIlroy in 1968, when he conceptualized software variability by the composition of components (McIlroy 1968). In the intervening 30 years grew the recognition that the custom production of software, not just operating systems, is a core activity of software engineering; the study of SPLs, unto themselves, was a worthy area of scientific and engineerin
