Reusing Geographic E-Services: A Case Study in the Marine Ecological Domain
Abstract
Software product line engineering aims to reduce
development time, effort, cost, and complexity by taking advantage of
the commonality within a portfolio of similar products. This may benefit
the development of applications in several domains, and particularly in
geographic information systems (GIS). Reusing services for GIS
challenges developers to produce assets highly adaptable to various
service clients and contexts. For that, service variability must
carefully be modeled by considering different recommendations such as
well-established standards. This paper presents an approach that
facilitates variability implementation, management and tracing by
integrating product-line and GIS development. Features are separated
following standard recommendations and composed on a platform-oriented
framework. The presented concepts are illustrated with a case study of a
marine ecological system.
