Methods and apparatus are described that allow an integrated circuit designer to design integrated circuits for more than one process technology using a single master design environment. The master design environment is achieved, in part, by the creation of a centralized master database that comprises device models belonging to more than one process technology. Creation of the master database occurs by parsing a plurality of external databases comprising device models belonging to more than one process technology. The use of a single master design environment simplifies the task of designing an integrated circuit, and also reduces the chance of error.
