About the Author

Alexander Felfernig is Full Professor at the Graz University of Technology. Together with his colleagues, he focuses on various research areas including recommender systems, knowledge-based configuration, software product lines, model-based diagnosis, and machine learning. Specifically, his research revolves around the utilization of recommender systems and machine learning within configuration and product line contexts, aligning closely with the central theme of the book.

Andreas Falkner is the Principal Key Expert for Configuration & Planning at Siemens' technology field of Data Analytics and Artificial Intelligence. Since 1992 he has been developing product configurators for technical systems of various Siemens divisions. Currently he is involved in projects aiming at improving configuration processes and tools, especially by applying data-driven and generative AI and integrating sustainability metrics over the whole product life cycle.

David Benavides is Full Professor of Software Engineering and leads the Diverso Lab at the University of Seville. He is in the direction board of UVL (Universal Variability Language, a community effort towards a unified language for variability models), UVLHUb (an open science repository for feature models written in UVL)  and flama (a variability analysis tool written in Python).  His main research interests include software product lines, feature modelling, variability-intensive systems, computational thinking and libre and open-source software development.
