Many automated manufacturability analysis systems have been developed over the past decade. These systems vary significantly by approach, scope, and level of sophistication. On one side of spectrum are software tools for providing estimates of the approximate manufacturing cost. On another extreme are sophisticated tools that perform detailed design analyses and offer redesign suggestions. How to automatically analyze manufacturability during early design states is a challenging research problem with an active and growing research community. While a large number of technical papers have been published, each covering important facets of this problem, there is no paper in open literature that provides an overview of broad advances that have been made in this area.

We expect that this paper will be of interest to a diverse group of readers: to experts, it will provide an overview of existing technology and help them compare their work to other efforts. To newcomers to this area, it will serve as tutorial and provide references to many detailed work. To industry and end-users, it will provide insight into a new and exciting family of software tools and hopefully expedite the transfer of these new technologies from academic prototypes to commercial software tools.
