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.

Integrated circuits such as programmable integrated circuits may include calibration circuitry for calibrating memory interface circuitry. The calibration circuitry may include processing circuitry and test circuitry. The processing circuitry may provide instructions to the test circuitry and direct the test circuitry to begin processing at a selected instruction. The test circuitry may retrieve data storage addresses and control signal storage addresses from the instructions. The test circuitry may use the data storage address to retrieve test data from data storage circuitry and may use the control signal storage address to retrieve control signal data from control signal storage circuitry. The control signal, address, and test data may be provided to the memory interface circuitry. The test circuitry may verify data received from the system memory during instruction processing.

A method for performing latency optimization on a system design to be implemented on a target device includes inserting a variable latency indicator in the system design at a place where latency can be varied. The system design includes pipeline registers at the place where the variable latency indicator is inserted. Latency optimization is then automatically performed on the system design, during a computer aided design flow performed by an electronic Design Automation (EDA) tool, by varying the number of the pipeline registers at the variable latency indicator to obtain optimized latency without affecting system performance of the system design.
摘要:
Mechanisms for measuring, analyzing, and presenting performance data associated with a memory controller system are described. The mechanisms include a performance monitor that detects and analyzes performance including efficiency and latency of a memory controller system. In addition to determining performance, the systems identifies reasons for loss of memory controller system efficiency. Moreover, the reasons, the efficiency, and the latency are analyzed and presented in a manner easily understandable to a user.
