Title :
CAD infrastructure for high performance design
Author :
Vercruysse, Ward
Abstract :
Larger designs and deep submicron effects have fueled an increase in design complexity. First the author describes how these design trends impact his methodology and reports on the growth he experienced as a result. The author then discusses how the CAD environment was setup for the design of the UltraSPARC-III
