Recently, a news-group about Computer Aided Design (CAD, CAE) soft- and hardware was proposed but did not materialized due to lack of resonance. Being interested in this area, I would like to point out that an ARPA-net mailing list exits for this subject: (excerp from the ARPA-net BB-directory) CADinterest^.es@XEROX Distribution list for the purpose of discussing issues and exchanging ideas pertaining to VLSI Computer Aided Design and Layout. The list is intended to encompass a broad range of topics including but not limited to: VLSI CAD/CAE/CAM hardware, software, layout, design, techniques, programming, fracturing, PG, plotting, maintenance, vendors, bugs, workstations, DRC, ERC, system management, peripheral equipment, design verification, testing, benchmarking, archiving procedures, etc. The distribution list itself resides on the Xerox Ethernet. Ethernet users can send messages to CADinterest^.es. Arpanet, Milnet, Usenet, and other Internet users can send messages to CADinterest^.es@XEROX. Anyone on the Xerox Ethernet may add themselves using Maintain. Arpanet, Milnet, Usenet, and other Internet users should send a request to (ANDERSON.ES@XEROX). Coordinator: Craig Anderson <ANDERSON.ES@XEROX.ARPA> In addition to the general discussing outlined above, I would like to know if there are other DAISY CAD-Workstation user here on the net (for the purpose of exchanging experiences, component models, bug-workarrounds and locally developed enhancements). Please respond via direct mail to me or to the mailing list. Andreas Nowatzyk ARPA: Andreas.Nowatzyk@cmu-cs-k.ARPA Carnegie-Mellon University USE-NET: ...!seismo!cmu-cs-k!agn
