Patents by Inventor Chris A. Cavitt

Chris A. Cavitt has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Simulation of modifications to microprocessor design
    Patent number: 9934341
    Abstract: A first open path in a microprocessor design is identified. At least one modification to a design of that first open path is simulated. An updated arrival time at a pin is calculated based on the simulated modification or modifications. An updated path time is then calculated based on the updated arrival time.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 11, 2015
    Date of Patent: April 3, 2018
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation
    Inventors: Christopher J. Berry, Chris A. Cavitt, Adam P. Matheny, Jose L. Neves, Jesse P. Surprise, Michael H. Wood
