Major Features of An EDA Specific Database
An EDA specific database is expected to provide many basic constructs and services. Here is a brief and incomplete list of what is needed:
- Fundamental Features
- The Design (or Cell) as the Basic Unit
- Shapes and Physical Geometry
- Hierarchy
- Connectivity and Hierarchical Connectivity
- General Constructs
- API Forms
- Utility Layer
- Advanced Features
- Parameterized Designs
- Namespaces and Name Mapping
- Place-and-Route Constructs
- Timing and Parasitic Constructs
- Occurrence Models and Logical/Physical Mapping
- Interface to Configuration management
- Extensibility
- Technology Data
- Layer Definitions
- Design Rules
- Generation and extraction rules for simple devices
- Library Data and Structures: Design-Data Management
- Library Organization: From Designs to Disk Files
- Design-Data Management
- Interoperability Models

Famous quotes containing the words major, features and/or specific:
“In the larger view the major forces of the depression now lie outside of the United States, and our recuperation has been retarded by the unwarranted degree of fear and apprehension created by these outside forces.”
—Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
“All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event—in the living act, the undoubted deed—there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask!”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“I was asking for something specific and perfect for my city,
Whereupon lo! upsprang the aboriginal name.
Now I see what there is in a name, a word, liquid, sane, unruly,
musical, self-sufficient,
I see that the word of my city is that word from of old,
Because I see that word nested in nests of water-bays, superb,
Rich, hemm’d thick all around with sailships and steamships, an
island sixteen miles long, solid-founded,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
