Disclosed herein is a method of managing data results of simulation processing of a hardware description language (HDL) model based upon keywords. In accordance with the method, a restriction list associated with the HDL model is received. The HDL model has a maximum number of possible keyword/value pairs sets for which result data can be obtained, and the restriction list specifies a fewer number of keyword/value pair sets for which the result data can be queried based upon at least one keyword. In response to receipt of result data obtained by simulation of the HDL model, the result data are stored within a data storage subsystem by reference to the restriction list, such that particular result data attributable to each of the plurality of keyword/value sets is separately accessible.
