Introduction

The Prepare, Assemble and Execute (PAxSPL) is a process that assembles and executes a feature retrieval process for SPL re-engineering. We design our process to allow adaptation and re-applicability according to different scenarios. This may reduce the cost and effort of re-applying this process in different or similar scenarios. Our process analyzes data such as team experience, skills, and products documentation. This information is used to choose most recommended retrieval techniques for that scenario. These techniques are assembled in different activities of our generic process, generating an assembled process.

Artifacts

They can be of two types: input or output. Input artifacts can be categorized as mandatory, optional or alternative. Mandatory are artifacts that must be used in an activity, optional are those that do not have to be used, and an alternative group is one in which at least one artifact must be used.

Artifacts are detailed in here

Guidelines

Guidelines describe each technique which we recommend to be assembled during Assemble phase. Within the guidelines we included a Support Checklist to give support during the process execution.
