Abstract

Increasingly software products are being offered in an online mode, also called software-as-a-service. Serving millions of users possibly spread over the world from a central software producing organization brings about many challenges and will require several innovations from the software engineering domain. In this keynote we will introduce the notion of software production that unifies the whole range of software development activities with the continuous operations of hosting and updating the online software products. We will present an overview of recent results in the area of software product management, software implementation, software operation knowledge, and software ecosystems that make up some of the research areas of software production. This overview is accompanied with a series of intriguing challenges for the research community.
