A method for reducing logic and delay within a logic structure that includes searching logic structures to be analyzed, finding a plurality of latches within a logic structure to be analyzed, determining if any respective latches of the plurality of latches have sufficiently positive slack within an input and output path thereof and optionally excluding the respective latches from being analyzed, determining if there is at least one remaining latch to be analyzed, and determining whether inverters are disposed within an input path and an output path of the at least one remaining latch. The method further includes obtaining logic functions of the input path and output path of the at least one remaining latch when inverters are found, modifying the logic functions using DeMorgan's Theorems, determining whether timing violations exist with the modified logic functions, and annotating hardware description language based on the modified logic functions when no timing violations exist.
