Methods, systems, and articles of manufacture for creating a hierarchical output for an operation in an electronic design

摘要

Disclosed are methods, systems, and articles of manufacture for processing a electronic design, which use a computer system to identify an operation associated with a task to be performed on the electronic design, to generate a hierarchical output for multiple shapes for performing the task based at least in part on performing an operation associated with the task, and to display or to store the hierarchical output. The task comprises a dummy fill insertion task or a design verification task in some embodiments. The methods or the systems may further determine or identify an inverse transform and apply the inverse transform to a shape before adding the shape to the hierarchical output. In some embodiments, there exists no duplication among the shapes in the hierarchical output.
