Calibre Pattern Matching allows you to define specific geometric configurations as visual patterns, directly from a design layout. With this visual representation, Calibre Pattern Matching opens up a ...

Pattern matching (PM) was first introduced as the semiconductor industry began to shift from simple one-dimensional rule checks to the two-dimensional checks required by sub-resolution lithography.

The creators of the Python language are mulling a new proposal, PEP 622, that would finally bring a pattern matching statement syntax to Python. The new pattern matching statements would give Python ...

Pattern matching is best known for its use in detecting lithographic hotspots, but it’s also widely used across all physical verification flows, and has expanded into design-for-manufacturing (DFM) ...

Take advantage of the new relational and logical patterns in C# 9.0 to make your code more readable, maintainable, and efficient. Pattern matching is a great feature first introduced in C# 7. You can ...

I deal with a lot of video game streams (fighting game) and would like to develop some simple automation to detect when matches start and end. This pretty much entails finding timecodes for the when ...
