Described are various embodiments of a reverse engineering data analysissystem, andintegrated circuit component data processing tool and method thereof. In onesuchembodiment, an integrated circuit (IC) reverse engineering data managementsystem forprocessing IC component data extracted from a target IC is described thatcomprises: adata storage device operable to store a data structure comprising a pluralityof extractedIC component data nodes representative of a corresponding plurality of ICcomponents ofthe target IC and a connectivity therebetween; a graphical user interface(GUI); and adigital data processor operable on said data structure to: render, via saidGUI, a dynamicgraph of said data nodes; graphically migrate at least some of said data nodeson saiddynamic graph as a function of a connectivity thereof with other nodes,whereinconnected nodes are attractively displaced relative to one another such thatsaid migratingnodes progressively cluster with related nodes to define distinct IC componentclustersrepresentative of distinct groups of related IC components of the target IC,whereasunconnected notes are repulsively displaced so to progressively distance saidunconnected nodes. Various related methods, processes, systems and computer-readablemedia are also described.
