Abstract :
MACLOG is a family of layout generators for the AT&T Cell Library. The MACLOG layout generator set is built on an object-oriented framework. Most frameworks are built around the hierarchy of module types. It is found that service hierarchy-the types of information provided to the user by the generator-makes the framework and generators easier to design and modify. The MACLOG framework and the experience with framework structure are described
