Abstract
This invention discloses a method for designing and manufacturing semiconductors including the steps of: (i) producing a fab-ready design for a semiconductor device by importing into the design at least one core from a remote source, the core bearing an identification indicium, (ii) utilizing the fab-ready design to fabricate the semiconductor device, and (iii) reading the identification indicium from the semiconductor device to indicate incorporation of the at least one core therein.
