Web applications development involves managing a high diversity
of files and resources like code, pages or style sheets, implemented
in different languages. To deal with the automatic generation of
custom-made configurations of web applications, industry usually
adopts annotation-based approaches even though the majority of
studies encourage the use of composition-based approaches to implement Software Product Lines. Recent work tries to combine both
approaches to get the complementary benefits. However, technological companies are reticent to adopt new development paradigms
such as feature-oriented programming or aspect-oriented programming. Moreover, it is extremely difficult, or even impossible, to apply
these programming models to web applications, mainly because of
their multilingual nature, since their development involves multiple
types of source code (Java, Groovy, JavaScript), templates (HTML,
Markdown, XML), style sheet files (CSS and its variants, such as
SCSS), and other files (JSON, YML, shell scripts). We propose to
use the Common Variability Language as a composition-based approach and integrate annotations to manage fine grained variability
of a Software Product Line for web applications. In this paper, we (i)
show that existing composition and annotation-based approaches,
including some well-known combinations, are not appropriate to
model and implement the variability of web applications; and (ii)
present a combined approach that effectively integrates annotations
into a composition-based approach for web applications. We implement our approach and show its applicability with an industrial
real-world system.

This demo shows the automatic generation of different webbased geographic information systems using a tool based on software
product lines engineering. These systems are variant regarding the data
domain they can manage and the functionalities they provide. Although
the products are different, the set of assets that implement the GISrelated functionalities is the same. These assets are assembled together
by our tool depending on the particular requirements of each products.
In the demo, we show the behaviour of both the tool generating the
products and the products themselves.

H. Alvarado, Suilen; Cortinas, Alejandro; R. Luaces, Miguel; Pedreira, Oscar; S. Places, Angeles
Multilevel modeling is an approach to model-driven
engineering (MDE) in which the number of metamodel levels is
not fixed. In this paper, we present and discuss the application of
multilevel software modeling to the development of geographic
information systems (GIS), and its potential benefits. Different
GIS applications may provide different features and functions,
but they all share a set of common concepts (regarding spatial
data types, operations, services, etc.), common architecture, and
a common set of technologies. Although we do not present a
complete set of models, we present representative parts of that
set (spatial networks, territory decomposition, and trajectories)
that, when compared with previous work on MDE applied to
GIS, support our proposal that multilevel modeling can provide
more benefits to GIS development than just applying a more
traditional two-level MDE approach.

H. Alvarado, Suilen; Cortinas, Alejandro; R. Luaces, Miguel; Pedreira, Oscar; S. Places, Angeles
Geographic information systems (GIS) manage entities with a spatial component (typically, in the form of
a point, line, or polygon defined according to a known geographic coordinate system), and provide specific
operations to process them, and specific interfaces to visualize them. Although different GIS may provide a
completely different set of functionalities, they all share a common set of concepts, architecture, and technologies. Therefore, in the development of GIS there are typically large parts of the system that can be very
repetitive. In this paper, we present a domain-specific language to develop GIS from high-level declarative
specifications. We present a metamodel for web-based GIS, and a domain-specific language based on that
metamodel. We also present a usage example that shows how the language would be used in a real scenario.
