Neutral archiving of EDA data

Objective

ARCHIVE addresses the need of the European electrotechnical industry for a standardised neutral archive format for design data, which is essential to guarantee the longevity of information, given the rapid changes that occur in the world of EDA tools, and the wide variety of tool sets available in the market place. The advantage this neutral format offers is that it will enable archiving, retrieval, migration, updating, modification or redesign of old designs at any time and in any CAD environment. Another significant advantage is that it will make the exchange of design data more efficient between European companies co-operating on common projects.

Up to now, industrial users have been forced to adopt ad hoc proprietary solutions, rather than standardised ones, to make good the lack of existing standard solutions. Such ad hoc solutions result in costly developments for the users and offer solutions that are neither portable, nor reusable.
The main objectives of ARCHIVE are,
- To define a complete archive information model based on the existing standard IEC 1690-2
- To achieve standardisation of the information model
- To implement an archive database to store the technical design data
- To develop a set of prototype tools to perform the archiving/retrieval of complete design data according to the archive model defined at the beginning of the project.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.
