Introduction
The workshop addresses software engineering issues related to requirements, design, implementation, evaluation, deployment and maintenance of variability-intensive systems. By "variability-intensive" we mean any system that needs to accommodate diverse application and deployment scenarios. Here, variability is the ability of software or software artifacts to be changed for a specific context. Examples of such systems include product families, self-adaptive systems, configurable or customizable single systems, open platforms, context-aware mobile apps, or service-based systems that dynamically compose services. These systems range from small-scale embedded systems to large-scale enterprise software systems to ultra-large systems of systems.

Submission Topics
The workshop addresses software engineering issues related to requirements, design, implementation, evaluation, deployment and maintenance of variability-intensive systems. Topics include (but are not limited to):
- Flexible and lightweight approaches to support variability in problem and solution space and to develop large-scale variability-intensive software
- Conflict between flexibility (agile / lean) and the need for bigger up-front design and design space exploration
- Challenges to balance business value and effort spent on anticipating variability
- Design solutions to enable continuous delivery of variability-intensive systems
- DevOps for developing, deploying and maintaining variability-intensive systems
- Approaches to limit unintentional variability and to better scope intentional variability to manage complexity
- Variability in emerging and maturing domains with potentially large problem and design spaces
- Integration of functional and qualitative variability in general development practices
- Training and tools
