As another example of designing a software product line, this chapter describes a factory automation software product line. This is a highly distributed product line, with several clients and servers, a real-time control component, and examples of client/server communication, as well as peer-to-peer communication. Because this product line begins with existing factory automation systems that are candidates for modernization and inclusion in the product line, the reverse evolutionary engineering strategy is applied. This case study starts by analyzing the systems that are being considered for inclusion in the product line—namely, the factory monitoring, high-volume manufacturing, and ...
