Abstract
A Web-based integrated circuit design system, method and computer program product tool allows design engineers to utilize a well-understood graphical interface (i.e., a Web browser) to access a wealth of data and services. The services and data include competing standard architectures and reference designs. The integrated circuit design tool allows users (e.g., design engineers) to efficiently design cores and systems-on-a-chip (SOCs). The integrated circuit design tool is a “virtual lab” which allows and aides design engineers at every stage of IC product design—architecture choice, implementation options, software development, and hardware design.
