PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and a system for chip design using remotely located resources. SOLUTION: A multi-faceted design platform (104) acts as a tool for front-end hardware IC designers who design complex core base system on a chip. The design platform (104) uses a network to search and gain access to previously designed virtual core blocks. The design platform (104) provides a means to select (306) and transfer (308) all relevant information regarding the selected virtual core blocks and allows the designer to immediately incorporate the virtual core block into the new SoC design. The design platform (104) further generates the appropriate source core files (320) for immediate use with a plurality of known verification tools to verify both the integration and connectivity of the virtual core blocks as wel as the basic functions of the SoC design.
