ABSTRACT:
A method in a data processing system for identifying hazards in a circuit. Signal paths are identified in the circuit. Each signal path within the plurality of signal paths begins at a source and ends at a target and each signal path within the signal paths is one that potentially propagates a hazard. Errors are then identified in signal paths in the circuit by analyzing the timing relationships and hazard characteristics of the signals within the signal paths.
