Abstract :
To hit the ever shorter market window for System on Chip (SoC) designs it is essential to reuse existing design components, also often described as Intellectual Property (IP). Easy search, select and efficient integration of available IP in a global, multi-site development environment is a key enabler for fast SoC development. In this paper, we present a Web enabled IP Reuse Infrastructure for IP consumers and providers, delivering search, select, upload and download capabilities. A central place for one stop IP shopping-the IP Repository
