Abstract:
Methods and systems access an original integrated circuit (IC) design. The smallest spacing between elements in the original IC design is an “original” minimum spacing. These methods and systems automatically convert the original IC design to a reduced IC design, and the smallest spacing between elements in the reduced IC design is a “reduced” minimum spacing that is less than the original minimum spacing. Such methods and systems either automatically replace a single via in the original IC design with multiple vias in the reduced IC design (in an area where the single via was located in the original IC design) or automatically replace the single via in the original IC design with a via bar in the reduced IC design (in an area where the single via was located in the original IC design).

Claim (Index 2):
The method according to  claim 1 , further comprising either:\n automatically replacing a single via in the original IC design with multiple vias in the reduced IC design in areas where the single via was located in the original IC design; or automatically replacing the single via in the original IC design with a via bar in the reduced IC design in areas where the single via was located in the original IC design.
