E-Design Based on the Reuse Paradigm

This paper gives an overview on a Virtual electronic component or IP (Intellectual Property) exchange infrastructure whose main components are a XML "well structured IP e-catalog Builder ™" and a" XML IP profiler™ While the first module is a e_publishing and an exchange management module the second has as role to extract from the design directories the IP files and to trigger their transfer to the user site possibly via an IP distribution server under the catalog control. Direct Design file extraction from commercial configuration systems such as CVS and Clearcase is supported; notice also that the architecture supports if required a network of IP distribution servers preventing from a performance bottleneck when exchanging IPs; both modules have been implemented respectively in Java Servlet and as a Java client/server application.
