.... integration of such systems [Jha95, Kis97, Gup97] and providing a secure intellectual property (IP) business model [VSI98, Kah98, Hon98] However, only little effort has been focused towards determining the communication environment for a design process that depends on IP blocks and tools [Spi97, Sah97, Hin98]. In this paper, we present the concepts and implementation of the key enabling technologies for effective research, development, and technical support of IP based EDA companies. We have adopted a novel communication paradigm, semantic multicast, as a solution to the content discovery, data ....
....tool. 2. RELATED WORK Collaboration in the EDA environment has been recognized as one of the key enabling technologies for short time to market. Spiller and Newton have identified a number of key research and development challenges in employing the Internet in collaborative EDA [Spi97]. A number of WWW based design systems have been introduced: WELD [Cha98] the distributed microsystem design [Sah97, Mic98] and validation [Hin98] projects. Benini et al. have demonstrated an interface for on line integration of EDA tools [Ben96] They have focused more on interactive remote ....

....access and execution. The premise of a user configurable desktop, where partners can collaborate at any time, from anywhere, with anyone, is clearly within reach with this technology. OmniDesks and OmniFlows can be thought to be analogous to the proxy based distributed architecture described in [15]. Proxies that implement the role of a conventional legacy tool wrapper , by hiding a custom interface for a particular tool or class of tools on the client side, are represented in OmniFlows as program nodes that provide a uniform interface to the client side for accessing any type of tool be ....

....wide area network infrastructure over the past few years indicates an opportunity for the industry and the field of computer science in general to make a leap to a new generation of capabilities. Specifically, we envision the entire EDA community organized as an integrated distributed environment [39] that offers users the ability to create an evolvable, customizable and adaptable virtual design system that can couple tools, libraries, design, and validation services. Beyond that, the system could also provide manufacturing, consulting, component acquisition, and product distribution, ....
