==Introduction==
{{More citations needed|date=May 2022}}
OASIS is the purported commercial successor to the integrated circuit design and manufacturing electronic pattern layout language, [[GDSII]].
GDSII was created in the 1970s when integrated circuit designs had a few hundred thousand geometric shapes, properties and placements to manage. Today, there can be billions of shapes, properties, and placements to manage. File sizes of GDSII format often takes tens of gigabytes of storage and are difficult to store and process.<ref>{{Cite web |title=OASIS Format |url=http://www.wrcad.com/manual/xicmanual/node775.html |access-date=2023-05-23 |website=www.wrcad.com}}</ref> OASIS creators and users claimed that the growth of workstations' data storage and handling capabilities was far outpaced by the growth of Integrated Circuit layout complexity.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.eetimes.com/document.asp?doc_id=1276148 |title=Going from GDSII to OASIS |publisher=EETimes |date=2022-08-30 |accessdate=2022-09-11}}</ref> Therefore, OASIS tries to solve the purported problem of the large size of the [[GDSII]] files by introducing complicated types of the geometric shapes (25 types of trapezoids only) to reduce the data size. Also, variable-length numeric format (similar to [[Run-length encoding]]) for coordinates was implemented. Finally, each cell in the OASIS file can be independently compressed by the [[gzip]]-like algorithm.
The effort to create the OASIS format started in June 2001. The release of version 1.0 took place in March 2004. Its use required the development of new OASIS readers and writers that could be coupled to design and manufacturing equipment already equipped with GDSII readers and writers. Its adoption was born of a concerted effort by integrated circuit design, equipment, photomask, fabless, 3rd party Intellectual Property (IP) and manufacturing companies from the United States, Japan, Taiwan, Korea and Europe.
A constrained version of OASIS, called [[OASIS.MASK]], addresses the unique needs of semiconductor photomask manufacturing equipment such as pattern generators and inspection systems. Both OASIS and OASIS.MASK are [[technical standard|industry standard]]s.

{{overly detailed|section=yes|date=February 2012}}
[[File:Wikipediaoasisimage 2.png|thumb|This view is called a cell view. A cell can be a collection of placed geometric shapes. It also can be a collection of cells; each containing other cells and/or geometric shapes. Each cell must have at least one layer. In this view, each color represents a different layer within the cell. An integrated circuit can contain tens of thousands of unique cells and repeated instances of the same cell.]]
Below is a human-readable text representation of the OASIS binary file that allowed the expression of the above "top" cell view called "Placed_shapes_and_cells_within_an_IC_cell". The top cell is defined by a file-level standard PROPERTY record named S_TOP_CELL. The PROPERTY record below references a PROPNAME record (refNum=0) that has a ''propname-string'' called S_TOP_CELL. The top cell contains the placement of three cells called "bottom cells". Bottom cells contain geometric shapes only.
Each line of the OASIS representation below contains (from the left) a record number and a record type followed by a set of values that define that record type. For instance, the first RECTANGLE record below defines the following type of rectangle shape, its size and its absolute ___location:
* Layer
Line 34 ⟶ 37:
* Lower-left y-coordinate
Absent in this RECTANGLE record is an option to describe the locations of repeated instances of the rectangle. Also, this record type allows the description of a square by defining the value for the width only. To enable these descriptions, one must set what is referred to as the bit pattern for the RECTANGLE record. For a RECTANGLE record, the bit pattern (either a 1 (enabled) or a 0 (disabled)) is:
SWHXYRDL (Square,Width,Height,X-coordinate,Y-coordinate,Repetition,Datatype,Layer-number).
For this RECTANGLE record, the bit pattern is set to 0WHXY0DL (Not a square,Width,Height,X-coordinate,Y-coordinate,Not repetitive,Datatype,Layer-number). The first and second RECTANGLE records in cell "Cell_Placed_Shapes_2" (CELL refNum=1)" define repeated instances of a rectangle. The first RECTANGLE record (
According to the CELLNAME records below, the bottom cells have the following ''cellname-strings'' "Cell_Placed_Shapes_1, . . . _2 and . . . _3". Each ''layer-number'' that had been assigned to a geometric shape has an association with a LAYERNAME record that defines a ''layer-interval'' and a ''layername-string''. In this view, the ''layername-string'', "Layer_Color_Mapping", defines the layer intervals used in a layer color table "layercolormap.data".
The example below was not meant to be an exhaustive description of the OASIS language. The objective was to give the interested reader a general understanding of the scope of the OASIS language and how it applies to the representation and the expression of the electronic layout patterns that define an integrated circuit.
