An Extensible Object-Oriented Approach to Databases for VLSI/CAD

Summary: Extensible object-oriented information management framework (3DIS) for VLSI/CAD, enabling integrated structural and behavioral component descriptions. It tackles VLSI-specific database modeling needs by introducing new abstraction primitives to encode domain semantics, demonstrated by a 3DIS VLSI design example.
