Value Stream Mapping integration in Software Product Lines

Musat, David; Rodríguez, Pilar

Abstract:

In the intense competitive software development environment, the ability to quicker create and deliver software solutions that better address the customer real needs is a pursued target. Since software decisions are inextricably related to system-level decisions, the integration of value-oriented and economic perspectives into software engineering is placing an increased pressure on software organizations [1]. As a result, current software development trends are focused on adding value along the development process. The growing interest on applying methodologies such as Lean to the software field [5] is a good example of it. Lean is a philosophy based on maximizing value and minimizing waste in the manufacturing process, where it has been successfully applied [2]. Thus, the importance of the value provided by a software product has increased its interest both in industry and research in the last few years.
