The management of software projects must take into account - among other things - the characteristics of the software to be developed, the organization developing the software, as well as the engineering methods used for development. In the PESOA project families of service-oriented applications are investigated. The project management for engineering these is influenced by product line engineering on one hand and by service-orientation on the other. In product line engineering there are two distinct types of software engineering processes, domain engineering and application engineering. These two and also their cooperation/dependencies have to be considered in project management. The service-orientation has influence on the software development process and thus also on the project management. In this report we investigate the influence of product line engineering in project management. We concentrate thereby on the main artifact of the project management, the project plan, and on the project management process. The process consists of different base practices that we discuss considering domain engineering and application engineering aspects.1 Introduction S.1 2 Software Project Management, Project Plan and Process S.2-5 3 Project Management and Project Plan for Product Line Engineering S.6 - 3.1 Product Line Engineering S.6 Table of Contents S.7-10 - 3.2 Project Plans in Product Line Engineering S.8-10 - 3.2.1 Domain Engineering Project Plan S.8 - 3.2.2 Application Engineering Project Plan S.9-10 4 Base Practices S.11-17 - 4.1 Define scope of work S.11 - 4.2 Determine development strategy S.12-13 - 4.3 Select software life cycle S.13-14 - 4.4 Identify infrastructure requirements S.14 - 4.5 Size and estimate tasks and resources S.14 - 4.6 Develop work breakdown structure S.15 - 4.7 Allocate responsibilities S.15 - 4.8 Identify interfaces S.15 - 4.9 Establish project schedule S.16 - 4.10 Define project plan S.16 - 4.11 Track progress against plans S.17 - 4.12 Act to correct deviations S.17 5 Conclusion and Outlook S.18-29 - Reference S.19enPESOAproject planningproduct line engineeringproject management004005006report
