A method of designing an integrated circuit using implementation directives for flow control can include the step of loading a design along with specified constraints, creating at least one instance of an data structure formed from a partial netlist, and decomposing at least one set of high level rules into simple implementation directives. The method can further include the steps of selectively attaching the simple implementation directives to the data structure, implementing a task manager which queries a data structure node to create a list of tasks to be performed on the data structure, and executing the list of tasks using a generic flow engine.
