Introduction

SDEP (abbreviation of Spec-Driven Extraction Platform) - an innovative modeling platform, providing powerful & rich APIs to build automatic and reusable modeling flows. SDEP enables a new way to shorten the model development turnaround time dramatically. It also provides customers with a system to retain and inherit valuable device modeling expertise and solidify modeling know-hows.
SDEP integrates Primarius'latest technologies in all modeling essential functions covering data analysis, model parameter extraction and model quality checking. It gives user a new powerful weapon & platform to tackle modeling challenges. With the flexible GUI environment and flow control functions, modeling engineers can easily establish a flow for model extraction procedures, routine modeling works, new ideas, etc. These flows on top of SDEP can be naturally automated, reused, and customized.
SDEP can also be used as a modeling expert system to understand model, accumulate modeling know-hows, and train modeling engineers.
