Abstract

Today when VLSI is the major concern of Design Automation system designers, we must remember that size and complexity are not the only problems. This is a time of rapidly changing and evolving semiconductor process technologies, and advancements in this area make the realization of VLSI possible. The Design Automation community must recognize the severity of the problems associated with this changing technology environment and be able to respond quickly to them. Technology-dependent factors influence every phase of the design process. A formal set of technology design rules, integrated with Design Automation tools can provide a basis for supporting ever-changing technologies.
