Abstract
A network accessible system for synthesizing (constructing) an electronic circuit model in response to electromagnetic analysis data. The invention provides rapid automation of the synthesis of an electronic circuit model by incorporating one or more synthesized electronic model components that are selected from a larger plurality of synthesized (candidate) electronic components whose structure and electromagnetic characteristics are rapidly and automatically synthesized in response to the electromagnetic analysis data.
