A new hierarchical layout vs. schematic (LVS) comparison system for layout verification has been developed. The schematic hierarchy is restructured to remove ambiguities for consistent hierarchical matching. Then the circuit hierarchy is reconstructed from the layout netlist by using a modified SubGemini algorithm recursively in bottom-up fashion. For efficiency, simple gates are found by using a fast rule-based pattern matching algorithm during preprocessing. Experimental results show that our hierarchical netlist comparison technique is effective and efficient in CPU time and in memory usage, especially when the circuit is large and hierarchically structured.

The major problems in parsing English conjunctions and comparatives are ambiguities of scoping and ellipsis. Scoping ambiguities occur when a parser cannot deterministically detect boundaries of constituents, while ellipsis ambiguities occur when a parser cannot deterministically detect missing components. Since simple lookahead mechanisms cannot collect adequate information to resolve these ambiguities, a parsing strategy that only employs such mechanisms will need to backtrack each time it makes incorrect assumptions. In this paper, we extend the Wait-And-See strategy to parse conjunctions and comparatives deterministically and simultaneously. Several mechanisms, such as bottom-up preparsing, suspension, and pattern matching, are implemented. The bottom-up preparsing accesses the dictionary and recognizes isolated sentence fragments which can be determined without ambiguities. The suspension, which is different from Marcus’s attention shifting, allows the parser to suspend temporally at ambiguous points and continue to parse the rest of the sentence until it obtains the necessary information to resolve the ambiguities. Pattern matching uses the concept of symmetry to detect missing components (the ellipses) in the two conjoined or compared sentence fragments.
