Visualization in a Vlsl Design Automation System Introduction: from Cad to Full-lifecycle Design Automation Frameworks
نویسنده
چکیده
Problems unique to the visualization of complex, partially automated design tasks such as VLSl system design are reviewed, and approaches are described. The design domain used to illustrate the approaches is chip-level “floorplanning,” an iterative-refinement design methodology for VLSl layout, routing, and timing control. The general view structure and control structure are described. Other visualization topics addressed are display of evolving data, sequencing of overlay data, an interleaved temperature-color metaphor for view consistency and clarity, and dynamically generated iconic measurement tools.
