摘要： Described herein are methods and systems for secure exchange of information related to electronic design automation. Information deemed sensitive and otherwise worthy of protection may be secured by methods such as encryption, obfuscation and other security measures. The secured information may be provided to an electronic design automation tool for processing without revealing at least some of the secured information. For instance, rule files related to integrated circuit manufacturability may be selectively annotated to indicate portions thereof deserving of protection. An encryption tool may be used to secure the information so indicated and generate a file comprising secured information related to electronic design automation. An electronic design automation tool may then unlock and use the secured information without revealing the same. For instance, the tool may be a physical verification tool capable of verifying whether any of the one or more integrated circuit layouts may violate one or more of the secured rules. An error report may be generated without revealing the secured rules.

摘要： Parallel operation sets for use by a software application are identified. Each parallel operation set is then provided to a master computing thread for processing, together with its associated process data. Each master computing thread will then provide its operation set to one or more slave computers based upon parallelism in the process data associated with its operation set. In this manner, the execution of operations by a software application is widely distributed among multiple networked computers based upon parallelism in both the process data used by the software and the operations executed by the software application.
