Abstract A method for modeling a circuit includes receiving a netlist that defines a plurality of connections between a plurality of circuit elements and identifying a subset of the connections. The method also includes routing the identified connections with a first group of wires having a first wire width and routing at least a portion of the remaining connections with a second wire width. The second wire width is smaller than the first wire width. The method further includes replacing the first group of wires with a third group of wires having the second wire width.
