The present invention relates to a method of automatically applying optical proximity correction techniques to a reticle design for containing a plurality of features. The method includes (1) generating a first set of rules for applying scatter bar assist features to said plurality of features; (2) generating a second set of rules for applying biasing to said plurality of features; (3) forming a look-up table that contains the rules of the rules and the second set of the first set; And (4) the look-up by the rules of the rules and the second set of the first set included in the table analyzing each of said plurality of features, wherein any one of the rules of the rule or the second set of the first set is It comprises the step of determining whether to apply a given feature. Where applicable the rule or feature any one of the given rules of the second set of the first set, the given feature is characterized in that it is modified in accordance with the applicable rules.
