Abstract

No description of CAD Frameworks would be complete without a discussion of the standardization work being promoted by the CAD Framework Initiative (CFI). This grassroots organization has not only demonstrated beyond doubt the deep belief in standards which is shared by CAD users and vendors in both the Systems and IC markets, but it also has demonstrated remarkable progress in the first three years of its life: both in the production of standards specifications, and in the creation of live demonstrations of interoperability between frameworks and tools at the Design Automation Conferences of 1990 and 1991. Increasingly strong financial support augers well for the continued success of CFI.
