Abstract :
In this paper, an automatic functional Engineering Change Order (ECO) problem is proposed. The contestants need to implement programs to identify the logic difference of the old netlist and the newly synthesized netlist, which agrees with new specification. How the logic difference can be presented as patch and how we measure the patch quality is explained. The program that can find the minimal patch wins.
