- 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

Famous quotes containing the words major, features and/or specific:
“Our major universities are now stuck with an army of pedestrian, toadying careerists, Fifties types who wave around Sixties banners to conceal their record of ruthless, beaverlike tunneling to the top.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“It is a tribute to the peculiar horror of contemporary life that it makes the worst features of earlier times—the stupefaction of the masses, the obsessed and driven lives of the bourgeoisie—seem attractive by comparison.”
—Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)
“No more distressing moment can ever face a British government than that which requires it to come to a hard, fast and specific decision.”
