Tools & career path

Linux for VLSI

On your first day in VLSI you will be in a Linux terminal on a remote server. This path makes you comfortable there: navigating the filesystem, working with files, viewing and searching tool reports, pipes and redirection, permissions and processes, working on remote servers and compute farms, and writing your first shell script. Practical and job-first.
