IP development and management of IP DB enabling efficient system-on-chip design

Abstract

For efficient system-on-chip (SOC) design, we need an IP DB (intellectual property database) where everyone can register IP and access IP they want. To quickly collect and register IP from companies and universities, we have to give some benefits to the IP providers while minimizing the IP standard they must observe. To provide IP suitable for IP users, we have to have an IP DB which contains rated IP and has sufficient and convenient functions such as IP search, compare and download. Finally, to satisfy the various requirements of both IP providers and IP users, we have to have many business models and license models working in reality. We present KETI's works to solve these problems, focusing on the development and management of an IP DB.
