Service-Oriented Architectures and Software Product Lines

SEI has published a new report titled "Proceedings of the First Workshop on Service-Oriented Architectures and Product Lines". It discusses the commonalities and the differences with service-oriented architecture (SOA) and software product line (SPL) approaches.

Overview from SEI site:
This report contains the proceedings of the First Workshop on Service-Oriented Architectures and Product Lines (SOAPL) 2007 that was held on September 10th, 2007 in Kyoto, Japan as part of the 2007 Software Product Line Conference (SPLC 2007). This report includes an overview of the workshop, four invited presentations, details of the workshop's outcomes, and the workshop position papers.
