The combination of increased layout data to check, coupled with increased rules, and complexity of rules to check, puts a heavy toll on the ability of chip designers to complete physical verification and meet tape-out windows. In this paper, you will learn:
How Moore’s law directly impacts DRC computational requirements
How to ensure use of accurate and optimized rule files
Best practices for layout fill generation
How to extract the most efficiency and scaling from multi-processor distributed compute farms.
