Description
This talk introduces how a bottom‑up SPL was successfully created by systematically harvesting variability from an existing, large industrial code base and evolving it into a shared platform. We will look at how feature modeling and variability management made it possible to scale from a limited set of products to a broad family of Danfoss Drives solutions, while controlling complexity and improving quality. Special focus is given to the practical role of tools for managing variation points and for modeling domain concepts and generating consistent artifacts. Our earlier experience shows that SPL adoption is as much about organization and mindset as it is about technology: starting small, involving engineers directly, and introducing variability incrementally. The talk aims to share concrete lessons learned, common pitfalls, and why a bottom‑up approach fits well in embedded software contexts.
