An IP generating system includes an IP (Intellectual Property) providing apparatus
and at least one development apparatus. The IP providing apparatus searches for
a development apparatus installing a memory compiler to be revised with reference
to applied condition data managed by a master database, and transmits the revision
information as to the memory compiler to the development apparatus. The system
can revise the memory compiler without requiring a user to make a decision as to
the necessity of the revision of the memory compiler.
