Our Integrated Design Automation System consists of an integrated design database, automated design processors, verificationtools, and an interactive capture system. The automatic logic synthesis program, Angel, and the hierarchical layout systemChamp/Alpha, have been particularly important in reducing the total design effort. A unified design language, HSL-FX, hasbeen developed to broaden LSI design system coverage and to obtain better results from automatic logic synthesis. Using thissystem, a 10K-gate CPU has been designed in two man-months?from function-level description to layour pattern.

Research in Design Automation for VLSI Layout
Since Japanese R&D efforts began in the late 1960s, advances in LSI circuit design automation have made possible the designof custom logic VLSI circuits with up to 10,000 gates. Automatic placement and routing programs have become essential DA toolsin ...
Design automation trends for VLSI in the 1980s (Position Statement)
DAC '80: Proceedings of the 17th Design Automation ConferenceSubstantial progress was made in implementing design aids during the 1970s; however, the development of new aids must be accelerated during the 1980s to support circuit designs of VLSI complexity. New design aids-will be required because of (1) ...
