Perl is a programming language created by Larry Wall and first released in 1987. Perl inherited features from a variety of other languages including C, shell scripting (sh shell), AWK, sed and Lisp.


VLSI DESIGN With PERL

Now lets talk about the ultimate ease in VLSI Design. The regular expression feature of Perl is so easy to implement an understandable that a very good parser can be written by a fresher programmer. And parsers can be made usable VLSI Designs as Verilog2VHDL converter or some format conversions can be made very easily.

I have created a fully automated tool for VLSI Layout & Tiling creation of different kind of GDS2 Design in perl . It can be used for Standard Cell creation, Memory Compiler Creation, & Custom Designing. Very soon I will be publishing it to internet for free for Researchers, Students and Professors.
