Here is a listing of some of the important updates made to IC6.1.7 ISR and ICADV12.3 ISR over the last few releases:

• Faster Netlist Generation for Analog Components in a Mixed-Signal Design (from ISR22) 
  Use the new Create spectre subckt for extracted view check box to generate an optimized netlist for analog components in a mixed-signal design. Not only does the new option improve the netlisting performance but it also skips the mixed-signal elaboration step for these cellviews, saving the overall simulator processing time.
  
  
• Default Application to Open a Saved ADE State (from ISR21)
  Specify the default application where you want to open a saved ADE state. Use these while migrating to ADE Explorer or ADE Assembler.
  
  
• Wildcard Syntax for Saving PCells in Netlist (from ISR21)
  Use wildcards to specify PCell operating point parameters on the Save Options form.
