摘要:
A command processor of an integrated circuit design suite has a graphical user interface and a command interpreter for interpreting user commands. The graphical user interface is specified entirely by a user at run time. One or more design tools corresponding to processes within an integrated circuit design process operate under the control of the command processor and within the graphical user interface.

A system and method for mapping IP components onto a pre-fabricated chip slice allows a user to select a target location for placement of an IP component onto a slice. A slice definition of the pre-fabricated chip slice is searched for a legal location for the IP component that is near to the target location. The IP component is mapped to the legal location.

A system and method for determining entitlement to content residing on a server. A subscriber account with a multi-channel video program distributor (MVPD) includes subscription information indicative of the services provided by the MVPD to the subscriber. A computing device operated by the subscriber sends a request for access to content controlled by the MVPD. The request is received by the MVPD and forwarded to an entitlements server. The entitlement server sends an access granted message to the MVPD when the subscriber is entitled to receive the requested content. The IP address of the subscriber computing device is used to determine whether the computing device is connected to the network via a network access device authorized by the MVPD. The “on-net” or “off-net” status of the computing device may be used to determine whether the subscriber receives the requested content and/or a quality of service level applied to the content.

A subscriber access control system (SACS) configures a network device connected to cable network to affect the behavior of that device. The SACS comprises a rules engine and a datastore that stores the current state of subscribers known to the SACS and historical request information. When the SACS receives a request to quarantine a device, it assigns attributes to a subscriber record accessed by a DHCP server to affect the configuration and behavior of that device. The actual behavior of the quarantined device is determined by the presence of the attribute and the value of the attribute.

A method and apparatus are provided for placing cells in an integrated circuit layout pattern. A base layer layout pattern defines an array of base cell locations and base layer elements, wherein at least portions of some rows in the array are reserved for decoupling capacitor cells. Each decoupling capacitor cell has a width, which is greater than that of a single base cell location and which is abstracted from the base layer layout pattern. A cell library defines a plurality of cells, including a macro cell having open rows consistent with the rows in the base layer layout pattern that are reserved for the decoupling capacitor cells. The width of each decoupling capacitor cell is abstracted from the macro cell. Cells from the cell library, including the macro cell, are placed within a design layout pattern relative to the base layer layout pattern. An area consumed by the macro cell within the design layout pattern is independent of the width of the decoupling capacitor cells.

Methods and apparatus for providing protected content to subscribers of a managed (e.g., MSO) network via a content source accessible via an internetwork such as the Internet. In one embodiment, a user accesses a service provider portal (e.g., website), and requests content. The service provider determines whether the requesting user is permitted to access the content, and what rights or restrictions are associated with the user. This includes authenticating the user as a subscriber of the MSO, and determining the subscriber's subscription level. In another embodiment, a user's account with the MSO and service provider may be federated, thus a given user will have MSO-specific information regarding its identity (such as login information, GUID, etc.) and is able to perform a single sign on to request and receive content.

A system and method for managing the delivery of targeted content. When a user desires to opt-out of receiving targeted content, the user registers with a do-not-target (DNT) registry and is issued a DNT cookie. The DNT cookie is a domain cookie that is stored on a user network access device. A provider of targeted content may look for the DNT cookie stored on the user's network access device. When the DNT cookie is not found, then the provider may deliver targeted content to the user. When the DNT cookie is found, then the provider may not deliver targeted content to the user. A Web site may offer the user an “override” cookie that allows that Web site to provide targeted content, or selected targeted content, even when the user has a DNT cookie. Alternatively, a DNT header can be added to a Web page request that indicates that the user does not want to receive targeted content. The DNT header may be overridden by an override cookie.
