Data Mining Software Tools and Methodologies for VLSI Design
Author:
Abstract: Modern VLSI design process employs numerous EDA tools to produce large-size report files. It is time consuming as well as the possibility to miss some violations from EDA report files. We developed two data mining software tools targeting for the timing, noise and power grid analysis report files in one high-performance SOC design project. The software extracts, sorts and displays the key information from EDA report files into HTML forms, which can be viewed by designers using the web browser. Organization of EDA report files, configure files, program execution flows and output HTML forms are described for the developed data mining software tools.
