Abstract
Methods and systems for checking a wafer-level design for compliance with a rule include identifying nets that cross chip boundaries for each of a set of chip layouts. Interconnected identified nets are combined into one or more virtual ensembles having properties defined by a sum of properties of the respective interconnected nets. Chip layouts related to virtual ensembles that do not comply with a design rule are modified to bring non-compliant virtual ensembles into compliance.
