Abstract
A three-tier client/server system for the synthesis of VLSI circuits has been developed. The design system uses the World Wide Web as a backbone communications medium, whilst the sub-components of the synthesis applications are organised as servers, accessed through client/server communications between a tool server and thin client applets. This paper describes the architecture of the system, and in particular examines the use of multi-threading and multiple servers for improving system performance
