Abstract
Methods are provided for processing design information of an electronic circuit design. A single path or multiple paths that are produced by a first design tool are an input for the method. Each path includes an ordered set of element names of the electronic circuit design. Each element name of each path is pattern matched with the names of design blocks of the electronic circuit design produced by a second design tool. Data indicative of a path produced by the second design tool that includes the design blocks that are pattern matched to the ordered set of element names is the output of the method.
