Graphical DRC versus Text-based DRC

I just posted a blog about this topic and welcome any feedback, comments or observations.

Summary
Text-based DRC has been used for decades, however the addition of DRC+ will significantly reduce the amount of time that it takes to create a golden deck of layout design rules. Globalfoundries and Mentor have cooperated to add DRC+ to Calibre and serve IC customers at the 28nm node.
