Abstract :
This paper deals with an environment for IC´s layout, to act as a framework for the design of module generators for behavioral silicon compilation. It is built around an object oriented data manager that handles hierarchical design, and multiple representations, with emphasis on a safe design methodology. This manager also allows the use of externally defined elements, and the integration of tools written for other systems
