THIRD EUROPEAN EDIF FORUM ========================= Bonn, Germany 12th, 13th October 1989 Organized by the German EDIF Interest Group in cooperation with European EDIF Groups ________________________________________________________________________ CAD Integration --------------- In recent years, the integration and interworking of CAD systems and CAD tools has been identified as a topic of considerable importance. Several standardisation efforts have started, and foremost among these has been the development of a standard data exchange format for electronic design data. EDIF ---- EDIF, the Electronic Design Interchange Format, is a formal ANSI/EIA standard. Furthermore, EDIF has already become the *de facto* industry standard, widely used by companies and research laboratories in the USA, Europe and Japan. Since EDIF Version 2 0 0 was published in March 1987, many real EDIF implementations have been developed. Forum Programme --------------- After two successful European EDIF Forums in Brussels and Amsterdam, a third European EDIF Forum will be held in Bonn, Germany, on 12th and 13th October 1989. The Forum will start on October 12th, at 9.30 a.m. and will close on October 13th. at 2.00 p.m. It will be divided into the following sessions: Session I --------- EDIF and CAD Frameworks Session Chair Hilary Khan, University of Manchester, UK.
