Pattern matching (PM) was first introduced as the semiconductor industry began to shift from simple one-dimensional rule checks to the two-dimensional checks required by sub-resolution lithography.

To help designers find complex features with a design implementation, physical verification and DFM tools may employ pattern matching techniques. That is, a designer can simply copy a particular ...

One of the least satisfying aspects of most discussions of big data is a lack of attention to patterns of value creation. Most of the time, we are presented with scenarios in which data is poured into ...

Design patterns have evolved to address problems that are often encountered in software applications. They are solutions to recurring problems and complexities in software design. We’ve discussed many ...
