Abstract
Systems, methods and software products determine activity factors of a circuit design. An activity factor is assigned to one or more node types. One or more signal nets from a netlist of the circuit design are read. The signal nets are processed to associate one of the node types with each of the signal nets. An activity factor is determined for each of the signal nets based upon node type.
