How to edit single database parllel

bharath2k4er

 H,

      Can i get some idea on how to edit the same layout in multiple places. In the straight way it is not possible.

                    say i have 1000 DRC errors. Single guy fixing it is time consuming. so i wanted 2 guys to fix it. 1st one will start from 1-250 and the 2nd one will start from 500-250.

          can someone suggest the logic to implement this functionality.

Tell me the different ways possible to do the same functionality..

My Ideas:

        -->take a copy of layout and start fixing the errors. After fixing, merge the two GDS file. But i am not sure how difficult it is in the implementation point of view..

 

Expecting a very good idea for this..

  • Dear Bharath,

     I think such problem arises many times. What we have been doing in our team is that keep the layout at network location and both persons work on the same at the same time. But this is possible only when the design is having hierarchy and persons are able to work on different cells at the same time. If anyone tries to change a cell other person already working, due to the related lock file, he/she is not allowed for the same.

     Further regarding the distribution of errors, it may that the DRC related to FEOL layers are handled by one and teh BEOL by the other. If the span of erros is large over the metallization, the breakup could be taken accoudingly.

     BUT, if the design is flat on which both the persons have to work, The idea about what you mentioned of combiing the GDS is something strange. The is possibility that we combine the different layers of different layout to one, but I feel that will make it a mess.

     Expecting some more solutions from other friends. Just wanted to share my experience of handling such issues.

     Regards,
    Anuj.
