Changing markets and environments has made the ability to rapidly adapt to these changes a necessity in software systems. However the costs of changing and adapting systems to new requirements still remains an unsolved issue. In this context service-oriented software product lines were introduced with the aim to combine the reusability of software product line with the flexibility of service-oriented architecture. Although this approach helps build flexible software systems with high levels of reuse, certain issues are raised. The main issue is the complexity that a service-oriented product line will face. Developing systems from internal and external assets, taking into consideration the variety and number of these assets, can cause problems in deciding which asset is best suited for the system. To help solve these issues we propose the use of approaches based on artificial intelligence. In this paper we show how swarm intelligence can be used in service-oriented product lines to reduce complexity and find optimal solutions for the development of software systems. We also present an example of the application of swarm intelligence in finding the optimal product for a service-oriented product line.
