Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a system and method for electronic design automation. Embodiments may include receiving, using at least one processor, an electronic design and determining one or more graph based analysis (“GBA”) violating nodes associated with the electronic design. Embodiments may include identifying a non-covered violating node from the GBA violating nodes and determining a worst timing path through the non-covered violating node. Embodiments may further include invoking a path-based analysis (“PBA”) on the worst timing path and determining if the worst timing path satisfies the PBA analysis.
