The Software Engineering Institute (SEI) held the second Software Product Line Conference in San Diego, CA, August 19-22, 2002. There were 157 attendees, roughly two thirds from the United States and the remaining third from 16 other countries spanning North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa. Most of the participants were from commercial organizations, but academia and government were well represented. There was participation from most of the software product line leaders including: Hewlett Packard, Nokia, Philips, Robert Bosch GmBh, Avaya, Motorola, Cummins Inc., Siemens, Ericsson, Thales, and General Motors.
The conference program included seven tutorials; seven workshops, including one that was focused on DoD product line practice; an inspiring keynote talk, "Global Software Product Lines and Infinite Diversity," by Anders Heie from Nokia Mobile Phones; two panels; twenty-four technical paper presentations; four technical demonstrations; several Birds-of-a-Feather Sessions; and the Second Software Product Line Hall of Fame at which attendees voted in five new members to the software product line elite.
The Third Software Product Line Conference (SPLC3) will be held in the United States in autumn 2004. The Fifth Product Family Engineering Workshop will be held in Italy in autumn 2003. A mixture of SEI and international product line leaders will organize each.
