Title: Method for traversing net connectivity through design hierarchy
Inventor: FERRERI RICHARD ANTHONY
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 2001-12-06
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To traverse net occurrences of a light weight occurrence model. SOLUTION: An iterator is initialized with information about the current occurrence net from the inventive occurrence node that describes the occurrence net's owner and folded model describer. In traversing up, the iterator finds the next port that connects to the folded model net indicated by the describer used during initialization. Then, using information stored in the model, the iterator finds the occurrence net object (606) that is one level higher in hierarchy than the original occurrence net object (602). In traversing down, the iterator finds the next port instance that connects to the folded model net indicated by the describer used during initialization. Then, using information stored in the model, the iterator finds the occurrence net object (604 and others) that is one level lower in hierarchy than the original occurrence net object.
