A DBMS for Large Design Automation Databases

Summary: Tacoma is a DBMS for large CAD/CAM databases, enabling scalable storage and retrieval of LSI/VLSI designs. It blends relational modeling with object-oriented features to support design-automation workloads, as deployed at Amdahl for mainframe designs. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
