摘要:
An instruction trace is segmented into a number of contiguous instruction segments, such that each boundary between adjacent instruction segments is defined by a branch instruction. A segment identifier is assigned to each instruction segment, such that each instruction segment having identical content is assigned a same segment identifier. Using the assigned segment identifiers, the instruction trace is translated into a sequence of segment identifiers. The sequence of segment identifiers is then iteratively consolidated into a prime form that does not include a repetition of a heterogeneous pair of consecutive segment identifiers. The prime form of the sequence of segment identifiers is then rendered in a graphical format.

A method for designing a system on a target device includes entering the system. The system is synthesized. The system is mapped. The system is placed on the target device. The system is routed. Physical synthesis is performed on the system immediately after more than one of the entering, synthesizing, mapping, placing and routing procedures.

A method for designing a system on a target device utilizing field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) includes identifying a group of components associated with a critical signal in the system. A first copy and a second copy of the group of components are generated where the first copy is driven by a first signal at a first state and the second copy is driven by a second signal at a second state. The system is configured to select an output of one of the first copy and the second copy in response to the critical signal.

A method for designing a system on a target device includes synthesizing the system. The system is mapped. The system is placed on the target device. Physical synthesis is performed on the system by identifying a plurality of register retiming solutions for each register in the system, performing combinational resynthesis on each of the register retiming solutions, and selecting a combinational resynthesis solution for the system.

A method for designing a system on a target device includes synthesizing the system. The system is mapped. The system is placed on the target device. The system is routed. Physical synthesis is performed on the system where a first descendant thread is spawned to run in parallel with an existing thread where the first descendant thread is executing a different optimization strategy than the existing thread but on a same netlist as the existing thread.
