A graphical data management system for HDL-based ASIC design projects
Claus Mayer, Hans Sahm, Jörg Pleickhardt · 1996
Efficient and secure project data management is a key requirement for todays HDL ASIC design projects. This paper introduces a RCS-based data management system, which focuses on the requirements of ASIC project teams. The project- and the user's working directories are strictly separated, data transfer is explicitly triggered by checking-in or checking-out files. There are cumulative check-out operations available that consider hierarchical and logical dependencies between the files and generate script files for further data processing.
