Abstract
An example is a method. An electronic representation of a design of an integrated circuit to be manufactured on a semiconductor die is obtained. The design of the integrated circuit includes layers. The electronic representation includes initial polygons. Polygon topological skeletons of the initial polygons of the target layer are generated. A space topological skeleton in a space between the polygon topological skeletons is generated. A connected network comprising network edges is generated. Each network edge is connected between a respective polygon topological skeleton and the space topological skeleton. A transformation of the polygon topological skeletons is performed, by one or more processors, based on the network edges, a spacing specification for a spacing between polygons, and respective specified widths associated with the initial polygons by perturbing the polygon topological skeletons.
