Chris, Kris, Cris, Your Name, My Name; Does How You Spell the Name Matter to Conformal?

7 May 2022 • 1 minute read

No matter how your name is spelt in different countries, and how they say it, once they get to know you, people identify you as the same person.

Ah! this is Chris, Cris, Kris, Kirshner, or Krishna. And I know this dude, even though he has transformed since I last saw him, and is 10 years older than what I remember. Slight smile

Likewise, different tools have different ways of naming the same design object and the default rules rarely match, but verification tools like Conformal must identify it as the same object; otherwise, comparison is difficult.

You can track those name changes, and during comparison identify those naming differences.

Conformal name-based mapping is the fastest mapping method. Take advantage of that, and use renaming rules to finish key point mapping.

This video shows how to apply renaming rules in Conformal Equivalence Checker.
