Abstract

Product line engineering and model based engineering are two powerful engineering approaches that each bring significant advantages to system engineering projects. This paper explores how three companies - Raytheon, General Dynamics, and General Motors - are combining these two paradigms in unique and innovative ways in very challenging application domains to achieve engineering goals of critical importance to them.
