This section is under serious construction!
Note: $cdk_dir == toplevel directory of NCSU CDK
$cdk_dir/cdssetup/cdsenv sets the default model path to include $cdk_dir/models/simname, where simname is either ``hspice'' or ``spectre''.
Under each simulator's directory, there are several ``corner'' directories:To change the model path to a particular one of these directories, use the form defined in the SKILL file $cdk_dir/skill/menus/artist/setSimCorner.il You access it in Artist via the ``Setup -> Model corner...'' menu entry. Simply select the desired corner and the model path will be set to the correct path.
The simulators' directories also contain a ``standalone'' directory, which contain model files suitable for standalone simulation (i.e., they are not in cdsspice syntax).
There is also the directory $cdk_dir/models/MOSIS_reports/, which contains the raw MOSIS parametric wafer reports from which we pulled the model data.

NOTE: There must be no spaces on either side of the equal sign!
