>>
>> I would like to conduct the review and approval of this PAR on a 10-day
>> approval basis. That is, if you approve of this PAR you need do
>> nothing. (Of course, feel free to respond with an affirmation of your
>> approval.)
>>
>> However, if you do not approve of this PAR as it now stands, you must
>> indicate your disapproval no later than 09:00 AM EDT on Monday, April 8,
>> 2002. I've set the reply-to header of this email to me, but feel free
>> to respond to the steering committee if that is your wish.

>>
>> Delay and power calculation for integrated circuit design
>>
>> 10. Purpose of Proposed Project:
>> [Why it is being done, including intended users and benefits to users.
> This should be brief (less than 5 lines recommended). For the revision of a
> standard, the purpose should be the purpose of the original standard and
> include why the standard is being revised.]
>>
>> To provide a standard system for integrated circuit designers to more
> accurately and completely analyze semiconductor designs across Electronic
> Design Automation (EDA) applications and for integrated circuit vendors to
> express logical behavior, signal integrity, delay and power information only
> once per technology while enabling sufficient EDA application accuracy.
>>
>> SUMMARY OF CHANGES:
>>
>> To extend the standard system (IEEE 1481-1999) so integrated circuit
> designers can more accurately and completely analyze semiconductor designs
> across Electronic Design Automation (EDA) applications.
>>
>> P1481-1999 PURPOSE:
>> To provide a standard system for integrated circuit designers to
> consistently calculate chip delay and power across Electronic Design
> Automation (EDA) applications and for integrated circuit vendors to express
> delay and power information only once per technology while enabling
> sufficient EDA application accuracy.

>> [ Yes ] {Yes, with explanation below/ No}
>> [ P1603 Advanced Library Format (ALF) is a text based data-centric
> modeling language that contains similar information content to the proposed
> enhancements. ALF adds a physical layout view that is beyond the scope of
> this project. The primary difference is that IEEE 1481 and its proposed

> Program Interface (API) in addition to an optional text based
> representation. The P1481 and extensions enable the definition of both data
> and algorithms that become an integral part of an IC design application]
