Abstract :
A description is given of the issues encountered in generating an integrated design environment (IDE) based on the DEMETER workbench (DWB) and PIE (a parallel programming and instrumentation environment for UNIX machines). Some of the reasons for using a general integration methodology are explained. DEMETER, which supports complexity reduction, CAD tools management and manipulation, and distributed/parallel problem-solving, is presented. DWB is described. It is shown how the IDE can be built using the DWB and the basic concepts developed in PIE
