Abstract

A method and apparatus for identifying net text in a net list at each hierarchical level of the net list is disclosed. The identified net text is then associated with the hierarchical level in which the net text was found. Each cell in the net list can then be optimized by exploding the net list of at least one cell. Once exploded, the identified net text together with the associated hierarchical level of each progeny cell of each exploded cell is associated with the net list of the exploded cell.
