This paper describes a demonstration of the product line engineering tool and framework
Gears from BigLever software. Gears provides a single feature modeling language, a single
variation point mechanism, and a single automated product configurator that are used to
configure a product portfolio's shared engineering assets appropriately for each product in
the portfolio. The result is an automated production line capability that can quickly produce
any product in the portfolio from the same, single set of shared assets.
