Detecting Monte Carlo simulation

dragank over 4 years ago

Hi all.

Is there away to detect Monte Carlo simulation from SKILL apis ?

Thank you in advance.

Almost certainly, but you've given no context - where exactly are you trying to "detect" this? Are you trying to see whether the current run is going to run Monte Carlo? Are you checking whether a history is for Monte Carlo? What tools are you using? What version? In order to give an answer, I really need to know what your objective is to ensure that it's answering the real question.

The best would be if I can check if history was Monte Carli simulation,
I am using maestro.

Cadence version

histName="historyName"
sess=axlGetWindowSession()
sdb=axlGetMainSetupDB(sess)
hist=axlGetHistoryEntry(sdb histName)
ckpt=axlGetHistoryCheckpoint(hist)
runMode=axlGetCurrentRunMode(ckpt)

The last will return "Monte Carlo Sampling" if it was Monte Carlo.
