Systems and methods for automatic handling of engineering design parameter violations

A system for reducing processing time of an automated engineering design, comprising:

• one or more data processors;
• a computer-readable medium encoded with instructions for commanding the one or more data processors to execute steps of a process, wherein the steps include:
• accessing a repository of engineering design rule violations and corresponding waiver decisions regarding the engineering design rule violations;
• performing a clustering operation on engineering design rule violations in the repository to form clusters of engineering design rule violations based on one or more characteristics of the engineering design rule violations;
• analyzing the waiver decisions associated with engineering design rule violations in each cluster to assign a risk level to each cluster;
• identifying a plurality of detected engineering design rule violations associated with the engineering design;
• iterating through each of the detected engineering design rule violations to determine which cluster that detected engineering design rule violation belongs;
• and
• automatically waiving detected engineering design rule violations associated with low risk clusters for design approval.
