-The first part of the WorkBook is intended to introduce basic information for **newcomers** ​ 
-about accessing **computing resources** and starting the **EDA softwares** licensed by INFN for the  
-VLSI lab. 
- 
-We start describing how to obtain a VLSI computing account and an INFN UNIX account, then focusing ​ 
-the attention on both hardware and software computing resources. \\ 
-Next we provide a general overview about **which tools** are available for analog, mixed-mode and  
-digital IC design and **what are they for**. Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design will be introduced 
-as well. It is not intended to be a detailed and exhaustive ​ 
-description of each tool, but rather a short description of the main components and features of each design platform. \\ 
-At the end we will walk you through all the necessary steps for **setting up your UNIX computing environment** ​ 
-and running the different design platforms. Most of the information contained in this part of the WorkBook is specific ​ 
-for the computing environment at the University of Turin. ​ 
- 
-Certainly the main goal is to get you ready as soon as possible to start work and run the proposed ​ 
-WorkBook tutorials. However, a basic knowledge of the setup environment is fundamental in helping users  
-to fix the most common problems by themselves.  ​ 
- 
-VLSI tools run on UNIX/Linux operating systems only, therefore some familiarity with UNIX/Linux is necessary. ​ 
-Although a lot of online tutorials already exist, a basic UNIX tutorial has been included in the WorkBook ​ 
-to get you up to speed. It can be found in the WorkBook __[[unix_basics|Appendix]]__. ​
