Abstract
A process is disclosed to identify the minimal set of sequential and combinational signals needed to fully reconstruct the combinational layout after emulation is complete. A minimal subset of sequential and combinational elements is output from the emulator to maximize the emulator speed and limit the utilization of emulator resources, e.g., FPGA resources. An efficient reconstruction of combinational waveforms or SAIF data is performed using a parallel computing grid.
