TL;DR: The Palladio environment is part of a growing trend toward creating integrated design environments and away from isolated design aids, and several commercial computer-aided engineering workstations have emerged, providing multiple-level, circuit-specification entry systems and integrated analysis aids.
Abstract: Palladio is a circuit design environment for experimenting with methodologies and knowledge-based, expert-system design aids. Its framework is based on several premises about circuit design: (1) circuit design is a process of incremental refinement; (2) it is an exploratory process in which design specifications and design goals coevolve; and (3) most important, circuit designers need an integrated design environment that provides compatible design tools ranging from simulators to layout generators, that permits specification of digital systems in compatible languages ranging anywhere from architectural to layout, and includes the means for explicitly representing, constructing, and testing such design tools and languages. The Palladio environment is part of a growing trend toward creating integrated design environments and away from isolated design aids. Recently several commercial computer-aided engineering (CAE) workstations have emerged, providing multiple-level, circuit-specification entry systems and integrated analysis aids. Integrated circuit designers have a special need for such workstations because of the complexity of large integrated circuits and the high costs of prototyping them.

01 Oct 1988TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a list of sixty expert systems that have moved out of development laboratories into field test and routine use, and about sixty such systems are listed as examples.
Abstract: Many expert systems have moved out of development laboratories into field test and routine use. About sixty such systems are listed. Academic research laboratories are contributing manpower to fuel the commercial development of AI. But the quantity of AI research may decline as a result unless the applied systems are experimented with and analyzed.
