The Department of Defense (DoD) Product Line Practice workshop, Product Lines: Bridging the Gap--Commercial Success to DoD Practice was a hands-on meeting held in March 1998. Its purpose was to identify industry-wide best practices in software product lines, to share DoD product line experience, to explore the technical and non-technical issues involved, and to discuss ways in which the current gap between commercial best practice and DoD practice can be bridged. This report synthesizes the workshop presentations and discussions that described selected product line practices and identified barriers and enablers to achieving these practices within the DoD.
