Implementation of web-based platform for IC design and project management

In order to accomplish IC design online and project management, an enhanced unified Electronic Design Automation (EDA) platform based on the WEB (abbreviated as WEB-EDA) is developed. The platform provides the sharing of cross-domain EDA resources via Shell mode and Desktop mode, IC design and project management. And for the purpose of safeguarding the online design environment, we adopt masquerade intrusion detection module and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) module. WEB-EDA has been used in our laboratory. The experiences with the applications show that the WEB-EDA platform is highly effective and convenient.
