Exemplary systems, methods and computer-accessible mediums can secure split manufacturing of an integrated circuit by modifying a previous location of at least one pin to a further location of the at least one pin based on a fault analysis procedure. A determination of the further location can include an iterative procedure that can be a greedy iterative procedure. The modification of the location of the at least one partition pin can be performed by swapping at least one further partition pin with the at least one partition pin.
