Method of implementing a circuit design using control and data path information

摘要

A method of implementing a circuit design is described. The method comprises specifying criteria for control and data path identification; generating a representation for the circuit design; analyzing the representation based upon the criteria for control and data path identification; identifying control and data elements of the circuit design based upon paths and macros of the circuit design; and generating a modified representation, by a computer, for the circuit design based upon the identified control and data elements.
