ABSTRACT:
One embodiment of the invention provides a graphical user interface for configuring parameters that control a cell routing process used to lay out a cell, wherein the graphical user interface is useable by both novice and advanced users. The graphical user interface provides both a scenario section and a parameter section. The scenario section allows a user to select a scenario that sets values for multiple parameters applicable to the cell routing process, while the parameter section allows a user to set and adjust individual routing parameters. The graphical user interface also includes an output that displays the parameters to the user. Note that the scenario section of the graphical user interface is useful for a novice user who does not understand the interrelationships between routing parameters, while the parameter section of the graphical user interface is useful for an advanced user who desires to set individual parameters.
