    Abstract: Automatically generating a hardware image based on programming model types includes determining by a design tool, types of programming models used in specifications of blocks of a circuit design, in response to a user control input to generate a hardware image to configure a programmable integrated circuit (IC). The design tool can generate a model-type compiler script for each of the types of programming models. Each compiler script initiates compilation of blocks having specifications based on one of the types of programming model into an accelerator representation. The design tool can generate a build script configured to execute the compiler scripts and link the accelerator representations into linked accelerator representations. Execution of the build script builds a hardware image from the linked accelerator representations for configuring the programmable IC to implement a circuit according to the circuit design.

    Abstract: A method for creating a circuit design for an integrated circuit includes, responsive to a request to modify a current circuit design, determining, using a processor, a first core used in the current circuit design and predicting, using the processor, a second core not yet included in the current circuit design as a candidate core for inclusion in the current circuit design. The second core is determined based upon usage of the second core and the first core, in combination, in a plurality of example circuit designs.
