Introduction
Cadence Virtuoso is a widely used custom electronic circuit design environment. It's also becoming popular for developing photonic PDK models and libraries for electronic-optic co-simulation.
Configuration
Virtuoso can be run on ECI server, or the binary file can be mounted on your own server.
ECI server configuration instructions:
Login to ECI server: ssh -X to username@linux10.engr.ucsb.edu (The node#10 is a 64bit machine. Do not use the default node which is a 32 bit machine).
Configure the .bashrc file as the instruction in https://www.ece.ucsb.edu/its/cadence/download/README, or as follows:

Run Virtuoso
Make a work folder, go into the work folder, type "virtuoso &".
