Autofrom v4.1.2 MSK


This section is only relevant if you have used a previous version of AutoForm.
The main advantages for Windows users are:
Support of Windows XP x64 (64 bit).
The incremental solver runs in parallel mode.
Zero footprint installation
(no interference with other software installations).
Reduced dependency on the third party software due to easier installation. The AutoForm software can now be installed without Services for UNIX (SFU) and without the necessary environmental adjustments.

Data compatibility
AutoForm 4.1.2 ensures backward compatibility of its .sim-files. That means all sime files can be used without any conversion between the versions 4.1.0, 4.1.1 and 4.1.2. In addition the user-interface of version 4.1.2 (xaf_4.1.2.exe) can open sim-files created with older versions. It will automatically convert them to the current sim-file format. Such sim-files can then be used by the 4.1.X solvers. It is not possible that the 4.1.X solvers work directly with sim-files from earlier versions, including version 4.0, nor is it possible that the 4.1.X solvers are started from other user-interface versions than
4.1.X. Due to the parametric formulation of AutoForm-DieDesigner and due to modified algorithms in version 4.1.X, the converted geometry may be slightly different from that originally created with older major versions (4.0X and older).

Concurrent use of AutoForm 4.1.2 and previous versions AutoForm 4.1.2 is a patch release based on AutoForm 4.1.0/4.1.1. It can be installed
together with AutoForm 4.1.0 and replaces AutoForm 4.0X and earlier versions. There
should be no need to use 4.0 and 4.1 concurrently. If they are used concurrently, anyhow, certain restrictions will apply. If you intend to use version 4.1 together with an older major release, such as version 4.0X, please review the following remarks carefully:
o AutoForm 4.1.2 must be installed in a separate directory (AF_4.1.2) and cannot be merged with older release versions (for example with version 4.1.0). This will allow the usage of different releases concurrently with own configuration files for each release.
o If you changed the default settings for version 4.0X or 4.1.X in one of the configuration files (for example in AutoForm.cfg) and intend to continue using these settings with version 4.1.2, you have to redo the changes in the configuration files of version 4.1.2. Please do not simply overwrite a new configuration file with an old one, since the new files contain new default settings that were not present in the older version.
System Requirements RAM:

Minimum 1 GB, recommended 2 GB (XP32); 4 GB (XP64) or more

Disk space: 500 MB including third party software

Supported Windows versions:
o Windows XP Professional SP2
o Windows XP Professional x64 SP2

AutoForm 4.1.2 is NOT supported on:
o Windows ME
o Windows NT
o Windows 2000
o Windows XP Home Edition
o Windows Vista

Supported Windows platforms for FLEXnet 10.8 (only for Floating licenses):
o Windows Server 2003
o Windows XP Professional SP2
o Windows XP Professional x64 SP2

Additional hints:
o AutoForm requires a screen resolution of 1280 x 1024 or higher.
o AutoForm must be installed on an NTFS file system. To check whether your file
system is NTFS, check the properties of the drive where AutoForm should be installed (usually C:\).
o AutoForm must be installed on a machine with a network adapter even though
the machine does not need to be connected to a network.
o AutoForm requires the following third party software:
Hummingbird Exceed 2007 (12.0.2.132 or higher on XP32, 12.0.8.146 or
higher on XP64) Hummingbird Exceed 3D (12.0.2.132 or higher on XP32, 12.0.8.146 or higher on XP64) These software packages are included in the installation media and will be installed if “Typical Installation” is chosen in the Master Setup.

NOTE:
The Hummingbird packages contain only the data required to run AutoForm 4.1.2. These are not full copies of the distributions shipped by the original suppliers.

Petrel 2007


Petrel 2007.1—What's New

New in Petrel – Visualize and analyze fractured reservoirs. Model discrete fracture networks and perform dual porosity and dual permeability simulations in ECLIPSE with Petrel 2007.1.

Seismic interpretation in Petrel 2007. From regional to reservoir and from 2d lines to 3d surveys, the capabilities of the new Petrel broaden into exploration.

Geophysics
Seismic scalability solved
Today, many seismic datasets commonly exceed tens or even hundreds of gigabytes of disk space. By handling data in a bricked seismic data format and using smart disk roaming technology, Petrel 2007.1 software can now easily handle datasets up to 60 GB without any degradation of data or performance.

For 3D datasets greater than 60 GB, Petrel software provides an optional Linux® seismic back-end cluster. Accessing data on the server is as simple as copying and pasting links to data that users wish to see in their local Petrel project. Operations (autotracking, attribute generation) run on data that resides on the server and will be processed on the server, not your local Petrel workstation. For attribute generation, the seismic server runs these computations in parallel-with considerable time savings and with the added benefit of allowing all members of an asset team to quickly review the results.

Composite lines
Interpreters can quickly create composite lines across multiple surveys, both 3D and 2D, as needed. Using the composite line display on the interpretation window, it is possible to visualize and easily interpret seismic horizons across multiple surveys.
Geology and modeling
Discrete fracture networks
Modeling flow in fractured reservoirs is challenging, requiring a software solution that supports tight integration between the static and dynamic reservoir modeling disciplines and which provides a way to visualize and analyze many data types that may be direct or indirect indicators of fractures.

The Petrel 2007.1 software release includes integrated technology from Golder Associates, a leader in fracture modeling, that enables the creation of an integrated workflow for fractured reservoir characterization. In addition, Petrel 2007.1 now supports ECLIPSE* dual-porosity models, making it even easier to simulate naturally fractured reservoirs.

Reservoir engineering
Multisegmented well model
Conventional reservoir simulator well models treat the entire wellbore as a single entity, with constant or averaged fluid properties throughout the well. These models neglect pressure drops resulting from friction, interphase slip, and acceleration. This is a perfectly reasonable approximation for vertical wells producing from only one zone. However, with horizontal wells, friction becomes extremely important. The multisegmented well model in Petrel and ECLIPSE divides the entire wellbore into segments, much as a reservoir is divided into cells when making the grid. Petrel 2007.1 gives each well segment the physical properties of the casing or tubing that contains it, allowing ECLIPSE software to accurately model the fluid physics throughout the wellbore.

Field development strategies
The field development strategy option makes it easy to set up and manage complex well controls without becoming overwhelmed by detail. Wells can now be organized into time-varying group hierarchies, allowing controls to be applied at the level that makes sense to you. Wells can also be organized into many folders, allowing you to easily apply the same controls to hundreds or even thousands of wells.
Drilling
Real-Time Data Link
The Real-Time Data Link component accepts streaming real-time data such as logs, events, and trajectories from InterACT and other third-party WITSML file servers. Data is immediately incorporated into Petrel for real-time monitoring and modeling. The data link facilitates rapid assessment of the impact of the new geological knowledge on the well being drilled, enhancing understanding and improving collaboration.
Usability
Usability starts with a belief in designing a product that meets user needs and a focus on creating an excellent user experience. In Petrel 2007.1 the graphical user interface has been updated to Microsoft® WinForms, making it even more efficient and usable.

Each explorer pane (Input, Model, Process diagram, and so forth) can now be manipulated independently with standard controls such as dock/pin/float/hide. This new system provides a stable and predictable toolbar appearance and behavior, while at the same time improving efficiency.

Conclusion
Petrel 2007.1 is the strongest release ever, broadening into exploration geophysics, strengthening core modeling and geology workflows, refining the reservoir simulation user experience, and supporting real-time drilling workflows.

Petrel 2008.1


The 2008.1 release of Petrel* software brings to the
petrotechnical desktop not only improvements over
the traditional geophysics, geology, and engineering
tools but cutting-edge technology.
NEW ENHANCEMENTS
Innovation
■ Graphics processing unit
(GPU)-based multivolume
rendering and geobody
extraction
Workflow
■ Autotracking improvements
■ Synthetic trace import
■ New fault surface
triangulation algorithm
■ Inclusion of levees in channel

■ Volume calculation

The 2008.1 release of Petrel* software brings to the
petrotechnical desktop not only improvements over
the traditional geophysics, geology, and engineering
tools but cutting-edge technology.

Volume and geobody interpretation
3D seismic interpretation has traditionally been per-
formed by picking points on 2D displays of 3D seismic
cubes. The new Petrel Geobody interpretation
module employs state-of-the-art volume-blending
technology to quickly isolate, extract, and integrate
a body directly into a property model for true 3D
volume interpretation. This allows users to interac-
tively blend multiple seismic volumes, isolate areas
of interest, and then instantly extract those areas into
a 3D object called a geobody. This “what you see is
what you pick” approach to volume interpretation is

meters, allowing a clear picture of the depositional
environment. These geobodies can be created or
directly included in the 3D geological model, provid-
ing a complete seismic-to-modeling workflow.

Horizon interpretation
Interpretation is further improved by enhancements
to autotracking workflows, including independent
refinement of the dip angle of the tracked event in
both inlines and crosslines for improved accuracy
in 3D volume inter
possible with both an asymmetrical and a symmetrical wavelet.
Asymmetrical wavelet tracking allows the user to focus on the data
either above or below the event to guide tracking, greatly enhancing
results particularly in areas of low data quality.

GEOLOGY AND MODELING
Performance
The oil industry today is constantly exploring ways to build bigger and
more detailed reservoir models. However, larger models require longer
process run times and the need to work faster becomes critical. Petrel
2008.1 software improves performance by supporting multithreading for
depth conversion, establishing horizons, volume calculation, some geo-
metrical modeling methods, and property modeling (kriging)—freeing the
user’s time for other work or for running multiple realizations. In addition,
enhanced data-tree performance for projects with large numbers of tree
nodes has improved speed and performance when scrolling in the data
tree, copying and reparenting well logs, and applying saved searches
with large numbers of well tops displayed.

RESERVOIR ENGINEERING
Sector model
The ability to test models in a small portion of the field is essential
because the simulation of big models is so time-consuming. The new
Petrel 2008.1 release enables the creation of single-sector models,
allowing the user to perform quick simulations on small areas of the
full field model, which requires less memory and eliminates the need
to rewrite or reexport the dataset.

Hydraulic fractures
Hydraulic fractures are commonly used to improve the inflow perform-
ance of wells in low-permeability reservoirs. These fractures are usually
defined in simulation using nonstructural grids around the fracture plane,
increasing the computation time because of the complexity of the mesh.
However, fractures can also be defined by length, height, permeability,
and orientation in the simulation model and can be simulated by modify-
ing the well productivity index (PI) and transmissibility of surrounding
cells, achieving the same result as with complex grids. Petrel 2008.1
software allows users to model fractures in full field simulation models
in this way, which has a negligible impact on run time but captures the
effects of flow patterns at the global model scale.

Compositional fluids
Volatile oil and gas condensate reservoirs cannot be modeled accurately
with conventional black-oil models. The ability to model fluids at varying
levels of approximation is essential, because real hydrocarbon fluids
can be extremely complex mixtures. The Petrel 2008.1 release provides
the ability to import and use equations of state in simulation, define
sample compositions, and plot phase envelopes for a better under-
standing of the fluids in the reservoir.

IC-CAP (Integrated Circuit Characterization and Analysis Program) is a device modeling program that provides powerful characterization and analysis capabilities for all of today's semiconductor modeling processes.

IC-CAP offers device engineers and circuit designers state-of-the-art modeling software that performs numerous modeling needs including instrument control, data acquisition, graphical analysis, simulation, optimization, and statistical analysis.

All of these processes are combined into a flexible and intuitive software environment for efficient and accurate extraction of active device and circuit model parameters. IC-CAP also provides the power to build model libraries for Agilent EEsof EDA and other simulators.

The Target Modeling Extraction Package
The new extraction package, for use with Agilent's Integrated Circuit Characterization and Analysis Program (IC-CAP) software allows engineers to extract CMOS models based on process target data and when available, traditional I-V curves.

Traditional CMOS modeling uses extensive I-V and C-V data for various device geometries. These are typically obtained from time consuming measurements when the process is stable and mature. To extract accurate CMOS models much earlier in the design cycle, Target Modeling uses process control monitor (PCM) data, typically fast single bias point measurements, which are commonly available in the early stages of process development.

The Target Modeling Package includes the following features:

A dedicated User Interface specifically designed for this application
Import of PCM data and related bias information form Excel spreadsheets
Import and display statistical information of PCM data (mean and spread values)
Direct support of BSIM3, BSIM4, PSP and BSIMSOI models
Support for major commercial simulators including Agilent's Advanced Design System (ADS), Cadence's Spectre and Synopsys' HSPICE.
Display, tune and optimize user defined scaling and I-V diagrams
Customizable automatic generation of HTML reports
Open architecture allows import and use of traditional I-V traces in conjunction with PCM data plots.
Package Overview
The Extraction Package includes a dedicated UI main window that manages the PCM data import and the creation of scaling and I-V diagrams. Device information and PCM data are imported directly from excel spreadsheet. Convenient wizards enable you to define subsets of devices and derive PCM data scaling diagrams (e.g. Ion vs. L, Ioff vs. W, etc.).
Figure 1: Target Modeling Tool Main Window and example of PCM scaling diagram (Ion vs. L).

A dedicated user interface enables you to combine diagrams into multiple plots (IC-CAP's Multiplots). The powerful IC-CAP Plot Optimizer tool enables you to conveniently select model parameters and tune and optimize scaling and I-V plots.

Figure 2: Diagram Configuration Page and an example of MULTIPLOT diagram including several scaling diagrams and one I-V curve.

Powerful simulator links to ADS enables real time tuning performance when simulating multiple devices. The extraction package benefits of an improved IC-CAP link to HSPICE made available with IC-CAP 2006B Add-on 3 and HSPICE 2007.03-SP1.

Availability
The IC-CAP Target Modeling Package (85199KL) is available now as part of the current IC-CAP 2008 release. IC-CAP parameter extraction software is available now; contact your local Agilent EEsof EDA sales engineer for pricing.

Synplify-Premier-with-Design-Planner- v9.2 for Linux


Synplicity’s Synplify Premier software is the ultimate FPGA timing closure and debug solution. It builds upon Synplicity’s industry-leading synthesis technology by adding graph-based physical synthesis and real-time simulator-like visibility into operating FPGA devices. The Synplify Premier tool’s graph-based physical synthesis technology addresses timing closure by merging optimization, placement, routing and generates a fully placed and physically optimized design ready for final routing using the FPGA vendor routing tool. The highly accurate correlation between the Synplify Premier product’s timing estimates and final design timing enables more aggressive optimization resulting in improved device performance. In addition, the Synplify Premier product offers FPGA Designers and ASIC Prototypers the most efficient method of in-system verification of FPGAs. The Synplify Premier software dramatically accelerates the debug process and provides a rapid and incremental method for finding elusive design problems.

Graph-Based Physical Synthesis
Invented by Synplicity, graph-based physical synthesis improves timing closure by means of a single-pass physical synthesis flow for 90nm FPGAs. Unlike ASICs, proximity does not imply better timing in FPGAs. In graph-based physical synthesis, pre-existing wires, switches, and placement sites used for routing an FPGA can be represented as a detailed routing resource graph. The notion of distance then changes to a measure of delay and availability of wires. The Synplify Premier solution's graph-based physical synthesis technology merges optimization, placement, and routing to generate a fully placed and physically optimized netlist, providing rapid timing closure and a 5 - 20% timing improvement
Simulator-Like Visibility Into a Live FPGA
The Synplify Premier solution quickly finds functional errors in FPGA designs by providing simulator-like visibility into operating FPGA hardware. Based upon technology from the Identify® product, the Synplify Premier tool has integrated debugging software that allows designers to annotate signals and conditions they want to monitor directly in their RTL code. Once the FPGA has been programmed, the RTL debugger is run, allowing users to view actual signal values from a running FPGA directly in their RTL code and debug it, in-system, and at the target operating speed. Advanced triggering helps pinpoint design problems

With the addition of graph-based physical and source-level, in-circuit debugging to the world's best FPGA synthesis technology, the Synplify Premier product is the industry's most comprehensive and productive FPGA design solution.

ASIC Verification
For FPGA users that are prototyping an ASIC, Synplify Premier accepts inputs that are compatible with industry-leading ASIC synthesis tools, allowing you to quickly retarget your FPGA prototype design to an ASIC. Compatibility features includes support for basic Designware components, automatic gated clock conversion, and the use of SDC constraints.

Tanner.EDA. v13


What's New in V13.0
Give your designers a seamless, efficient path from design capture through verification. Tanner EDA tools for analog and mixed-signal IC design enable faster time to market, lower costs, fewer risks, and shorter design cycles. You can implement a complete, integrated design flow with Tanner EDA's HiPer Silicon.

HiPer Silicon is a complete IC design suite that encompasses schematic capture, circuit simulation, waveform probing, physical layout, foundry-compatible DRC, and verification. It can increase your productivity and speed your design from concept to silicon. HiPer Silicon includes S-Edit, T-Spice, L-Edit, and HiPer Verify. Each tool has been significantly enhanced in the past year.

S-Edit
S-Edit enables schematic capture for the most complex full custom IC design. This easy-to-use Windows®-based design environment for schematic capture integrates tightly with Tanner EDA's simulation, physical layout, and verification tools.

New features in S-Edit include:

Hierarchical Find
Search for nets, instances, and objects through the hierarchy with filtering and optionally replace or modify them.
Design Navigator
Efficiently traverse design hierarchy with top-down and bottom-up hierarchical view.
Drag and drop instances directly from the library browser to speed through your design.
Verilog Import
Structural Verilog can be imported into S-Edit as a netlist.
T-Spice
T-Spice lets engineers simulate key blocks during the design process. It puts you in control of simulation jobs with an easy-to-use graphical interface and a faster, more intuitive design environment. T-Spice delivers highly accurate results by supporting the latest foundry, transistor, and behavioral models, with its new multithreading capability for faster runtimes, you will speed your design from concept to silicon faster than ever.

T-Spice includes the following new features:

Verilog-A Support
The Verilog-A feature of T-Spice allows designers to describe and simulate analog circuits behaviorally. For analog designers, Verilog-A enables a top-down approach to circuit design, and allows co-simulation between behavioral blocks and device level analog SPICE netlists. For process developers especially TFT and MEMS process, Verilog-A provides an efficient language for describing device behavior, which is portable across simulators.
T-Spice is compliant with all Verilog-A specifications in the latest standard Verilog-AMS LRM (Language Reference Manual) version 2.2, passes the Compact Model Council test suite, and is fully compatible with Spectre®, H-Spice®, and SmartSpice®.
User Interface Improvements
Simulations now operate on the active Spice file. Filenames of output files are auto-generated from the input filename, and can be optionally placed in a new folder with a time stamped name each time the simulation is run. This allows input files or result files to be easily compared in W-Edit or a 3rd party differencing program.
L-Edit
L-Edit enables analog/mixed-signal designers to automate the layout of similar circuits for different ICs. It meets your needs by combining the fastest rendering available with powerful features. You can get started with minimal training, and draw and edit quickly with fewer keystrokes and mouse clicks than in other layout tools.

Enhanced XrefCells
X-Ref cells, or externally referenced cells, now point directly to the final target cell in a chain of references. This eliminates the need for multiple copies of X-Ref cells that can occur when libraries with multiple reference levels are used.
SDL Enhancements
Flylines are automatically updated when moving instances.
Pins in the SDL Navigator can be viewed by net or by instance.
Existing geometry and geometry that has been added manually can be marked as part of a specific net allowing selection and rip-up of geometry by net.
Structural Verilog can be imported into SDL as a netlist.
Enhanced CurveTools
Wires can have fillets added that retain equal width.
Fillets can be added to curved objects such as a torus and multiple edges are considered as a single edge when adding a fillet/chamfer for curved objects that have been converted to all-angle objects.
Extract Standard
Starting in v13.1, Extract Standard will be much faster but it will still only produce flat netlists. Also, the block (sub-circuit) extract feature of Extract Standard will be discontinued in v13.1 because HiPer Verify now has true hierarchical netlist extraction.
HiPer Verify
HiPer Verify runs Calibre® and Dracula® rule sets hierarchically and natively, and it tightly integrates into the L-Edit environment, allowing design rule violations to be identified and repaired early before they become a major problem.

All-angle hierarchical Calibre compatible netlist extraction
HiPer Verify can extract a hierarchical spice netlist from layout using a Calibre format command file, with performance significantly faster than Tanner Extract Standard. HiPer Verify provides default property computations for built-in devices or user code may be written to compute custom properties from a set of pin and auxiliary layers. User-defined devices (sub-circuits) may also be specified.
HiPer PX
HiPer PX is a 3D physics-based parasitic extraction tool that extracts devices and creates compact and accurate RC models for interconnects up to a user-defined signal frequency. HiPer PX uses a fast and comprehensive interpolation method or an efficient boundary-element method for capacitance extraction and an efficient finite-element method to accurately extract interconnect resistances.

HiPer PX
Extracts 2D interconnect resistance and capacitance for fast extraction times and 3D RC for more accurate parasitic extraction.
Output is a simulation-ready SPICE netlist of devices and RC parasitics.
Supports reduction of RC networks based on a user-specified time constant.
