PCT No. PCT/JP93/00391 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 21, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 21, 1993 PCT Filed Mar. 30, 1993.Databases are prepared for data of circuit parts to be used in designing ASICs. Each part data contains functional element indicative of kinds of devices and connection information of the devices, a characteristic element indicative of operational characteristic values for the devices, and structural element indicative of sizes and shapes of the devices and terminal positions of the devices. By extracting and synthesizing these elements, new part data can be generated. For example, elements are extracted from part data A by a process P1 and elements a1 to a3 are obtained, and elements are extracted from part data B by a process P2 and elements b1 to b3 are obtained. The elements a3, b2 are synthesized by a process P3, and new part data C is generated. The executed processes P1, P2, P3 are stored in a memory in addition to the part data A, B, C. When the part data A is revised, the stored processes P1, P3 are read to recognize the part data C needs the revising. The part data C is revised by using the process P3, and new part data is generated.
