Abstract
Lately, the demand for mobile applications development has increased significantly mainly due to growth of use of mobile devices and the need to port existing web applications. To reduce development’s time and cost, Software Product Lines (SPLs) have also been used in the context of mobile applications. However, the existing SPLs do not worry about supporting the development of mobile applications corresponding to the existing Web applications, as it is desirable to have access to the information and main features of these applications in mobile devices. In face of this problem, this paper discusses the motivation and presents the evolution from a SPL in the e-Gov Web (e-Gov Web SPL) domain to a SPL in the mobile domain (e-Gov Mobile SPL) having in mind the need to supply market demand. The conducted evolution was supported by the PLUS approach (Product Line UML-Based Software Engineering) and by the features model. Furthermore, this work debates the main results obtained through some e-Gov Mobile SPL instantiations in the precision livestock domain.
