A mechanism is provided for the user to define a circuit design intent or strategy in the form of data that is stored with the design database. The subject matter can increase speed of log data analysis and storage, reduce data storage for log data, and easily manage system events. The technology employed will require the use of mathematical programming modeling techniques to mathematically formulate the business problem, and advanced proprietary solution methods to produce solutions satisfying all constraints of the mathematical model while optimizing an objective function. The method also includes forming a plurality of columnar electrodes over the electroplating seed layer, where the columnar electrodes include first columnar electrodes and second columnar electrodes. The apparatus also includes a neutral intermediate element mountable on the distal part of the rasp for driving it and for measuring its degree of recessing on a graduated scale.
