Abstract
Computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for double patterning technology (DPT) odd loops visualization within an integrated circuit design layout are disclosed. The method, system and computer program product comprise mapping all violations of the integrated circuit design layout to a graph. The method, system and computer programming product also includes partitioning the graph into a plurality of sub-graphs. Each of the plurality of sub-graphs includes multiple edges and multiple nodes. The method, system and computer product further include detecting all possible odd loops in each of the plurality of sub-graphs; and visualizing all of the odd loops in at least one of the plurality of sub-graphs.
