A Product Population

A product population is:- a set of products with many commonalities,- but also with many differences,- developed by different suborganizations,- each with its own time-line / lifecycle.

Concluding Remarks

Product populations arise from ‘convergence’ of products,and are becoming increasingly important.

Introducing product populations also impacts thesoftware process and organization.

We currently have 100-200 software engineersin 10 sites deploying our approach.

But we still have a long way to go…

Product populations require a balance between classicalproduct family development and a COTS-like approach.
