Abstract
A design-by-example methodology is applied to a library of highly parameterized design-rule-independent SSI/MSI module generators. This graphical approach is far more intuitive than working procedurally. It reduces the software expertise required to develop generators, and reduces the generator development effort by 50%. In addition, generators can be modified and debugged graphically, greatly reducing the cost of generator maintenance
