Abstract :
This paper presents JavaCAD, a new Java-based CAD framework for the design, validation and simulation of systems using third-party components with reciprocal intellectual property (IP) protection. The designer can use remote components with a dedicated and secure Internet protocol, that guarantees IP protection and supports a smooth transition between component evaluation and purchase.
