PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a layout result to which an optimum algorithm is applied at each phase of automatic arrangement and wiring design in the layout creation process of a semiconductor integrated circuit. SOLUTION: A design system executes the arrangement/wiring design of a semiconductor integrated circuit by dividing it into a plurality of phases. The design system comprises: an arrangement/wiring processing section for executing at least one of the plurality of phases of arrangement/wiring design by applying a plurality of algorithms; a storage means for storing an intermediate file for indicating an intermediate state executed by applying each of the plurality of algorithms; and a display section for displaying the intermediate state shown in the intermediate file stored in the storage means.
