Abstract: A method in which electrical signals are assigned in a network includes generating first signals from data sources; generating second signals from the data sources; assigning the second signals by comparing with first signals and/or with differences of the second signals in data traces for the second signal based on network states; if a number of unassigned second signals after assigning is zero, terminating assigning the second signals; if the number is greater than zero after assigning, generating further first and second signals with modified network states and/or output conditions and assigning by comparing the further second signals with the first signals and/or with differences of the further second signals in data traces for the second signal due to network states.
