1. A method for migrating a circuit design from a first semiconductor fabrication process to a second semiconductor fabrication process comprising:
receiving the circuit design;
parsing the circuit design into one or more standard cells forming an integrated circuit design;
forming a plurality of mapping tables having mapping rules for mapping the parsed one or more standard cells to equivalent target standard cells implemented in the second semiconductor fabrication process;
mapping the parsed one or more standard cells to the equivalent target standard cells using the plurality of mapping tables;
generating a file describing the circuit design in terms of the equivalent target standard cells; and
outputting migrated physical layout of the circuit design for manufacturing under the second semiconductor fabrication process.
