Method, system, and computer program product for characterizing electronic designs with electronic design simplification techniques

Abstract:

Disclosed are methods, systems, and articles of manufacture for characterizing electronic designs with electronic design simplification techniques. These techniques identify an input for simplifying an electronic design and generates a simplified electronic design at least by performing layout simplification on the electronic design. A characterization input may be determined for subsequent characterization of the simplified electronic design. An electromagnetic behavior of the simplified electronic design may then be characterized using at least the characterization input.
