  • Context-aware pattern matching for layout processing
    Patent number: 10496783
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosed technology relate to techniques of context-aware pattern matching and processing. A circuit design is analyzed to identity circuit components of interest. Reference layout patterns that are associated with the circuit components of interest are extracted from a layout design based on the association of circuit components of the circuit design with geometric elements of the layout design. Pattern matching is performed to identify layout patterns that match the reference layout patterns. The identified layout patterns are then processed.
    Type: Grant
