Abstract
A method of designing a circuit includes identifying a first path from a first selected node of a circuit design. A first attribute is assigned to the first selected node. The method also includes identifying a second path from a second selected node of the circuit design. A second attribute is assigned to the second selected node. The method further includes determining a first intersection of the first path and the second path, selecting, by a processing device, a safety mechanism from a plurality of safety mechanisms based at least in part on the first attribute and the second attribute, and adding the safety mechanism to the circuit design at the first intersection.
