Apparatus, design method and recording medium

摘要

A computer-readable medium storing a design program causing a computer to execute a process is provided. The process includes virtually routing, when routing of a wire to be connected between a first component and a second component at least one of which includes a swapping pin is being designed, the wire to be connected between a first pin of the first component and a first counterpart pin of the second component such that implementation of an actual routed wire connected therebetween is secured regardless of a net allocated to the swapping pin, and swapping one of the virtually routed first pin and the virtually routed first counterpart pin with the swapping pin such that the net allocated to the swapping pin is identical to a net allocated to the other one of the virtually routed first pin and the virtually routed first counterpart pin.
