  • BATCH ANALYSIS
    Publication number: 20140236904
    Abstract: A computing device is configured to receive a parameter from a user device. The parameter may include a requirement for a batch, stored by the computing device, to properly process batch information. The computing device is configured to test the batch by using the parameter to generate a test result before processing the batch information; and store the test result.

  • Method and apparatus for generating a centerline connectivity representation
    Patent number: 8132141
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a system for generating a centerline connectivity representation for a set of routing shapes. During operation, the system can represent the set of routing shapes using a set of centerlines with endcap extensions. Note that an intersection between two centerlines represents an electrical connection between the two routing shapes associated with the two centerlines. Next, the system can detect two routing shapes which overlap, but whose centerlines do not intersect. The system can then create a virtual shape whose centerline intersects with the centerlines of the two routing shapes. In some embodiments, the system can modify a dimension of at least one of the two routing shapes. Next, the system can create a new routing shape which overlaps with the two routing shapes, and create virtual shapes which connect the centerline of the new shape with the centerlines of the two routing shapes.
