Abstract
A method for reducing standard delay format (SDF) file size is disclosed. The state-dependent descriptions in cell descriptions of the SDF file, which are not intended to be used, are removed by referring to a design description of an integrated circuit design. Therefore, the SDF file size is reduced and the simulation result generated by a simulator is not affected with the reduced SDF file.
