Abstract:
1. A determining method comprising: obtaining terminal information indicating a first object terminal that is among terminals included in a plurality of partial circuits and subject to determination of whether the first object terminal is an open terminal; obtaining for each of the terminals, connection information and first attribute information indicating an attribute of any one among an input terminal and an output terminal; generating, by a computer, for each of the terminals, second attribute information indicating an attribute opposite to the attribute indicated by the obtained first attribute information; and determining, by the computer, whether a state of the first object terminal indicated by the terminal information becomes a high-impedance state, by simulating on the basis of the obtained connection information and the generated second attribute information, a state of each of the terminals when a value of a terminal that is among the terminals and indicated as being an output terminal by the second attribute information, is set at a first specified value.
