Aucbvax.5259 fa.arpa-bboard utzoo!decvax!ucbvax!TJM@MIT-XX Fri Nov 20 05:36:57 1981 VLSI design survey From: Ted Markowitz <TJM MIT-XX AT> I'm involved with a project that will be attempting to consolidate the design and simulation of VLSI systems in preparation for their ultimate fabrication from (most likely) CIF format descriptions.

What I'd like to informally ask for are comments from others who have attempted such projects. Some of the info I'm interested in is: - Hardware for implementation (DEC-20, VAX, personal computer, etc.)? - Language of choice for system (LISP, C, PASCAL, etc.)? - Graphics capability of system (Bit-mapped, color, plain CRT, etc.)? - Overall impression of experience during design and implementation of this system.

Thanks in advance for any help. I'll be happy to share any comments with interested folks.
