SoS is the Son of Spinifex. It is a hierarchical design rule checker that monkeys around in a Core design and tries to find all the ChipNDale geometry in order to check as many design rules as it possibly can.

The catechism states, that the recursion on the subcells has to take place at the end of the check among the internal of self and its subcells, in the procedure MaterialToCellSeparation. Nomen est omen, so I put the recursion step in here where it makes more sense to me. Furthermore the catechism states that the world is top-down, and that hence the recursion step is done at the end. Beside yielding a better program structure, this allows for more agressive (i.e. geometric) pruning.

Increased extension of error highlight rectangles from 1 to 4 units.
changes to: MarkError
gbb June 5, 1986 7:17:56 pm PDT
Although the separation rules do not have to hold for aequipotential pieces of material, we have to artificially check the geometry of each wire against itself in order to be able to verify the separation of cuts. We cannot skip the verification in the w1 = w2. In fact, in Core and Sinix, cuts are represented as material rectangles in wires. So to SoS two cuts violating the separation rule will alway look as two aequipotential rectangles.
changes to: DIRECTORY: added GetLayer from CDSimpleRules to find the cut layers independently of the technology, CheckDesignRules: added two fields to the state record in order to hold the fileds of material that may not violate the separation rules even if according to the contents of Core it is electrically connected, CheckRecord: each wire is now verified also against himself, MaterialSeparation: the aequipotentiality test has been moved inside the inner loop in order to be able to combine it with a "not okIfConnected", NotCuts (local of MaterialSeparation): new.
gbb June 9, 1986 6:02:28 pm PDT
Made more robust for the case of a missing design.
changes to: CheckDesignRules: added new parameter technology, GetObject: detect design=NIL
gbb June 10, 1986 10:07:56 am PDT
Tracked change in Sinix
changes to: ClearErrors: uses heuristics to find corresponding ChipNDale cell
