Abstract

See full text

Some embodiments provide a method of designing a configurable integrated circuit (“IC”) with several configurable circuits. The method receives a design having several different operations for the configurable circuits to perform in different operational cycles. The method assigns the operations concurrently to different operational cycles and different configurable circuits. In some embodiments, the method concurrently optimizes the assignment of the operations to different operation cycles and different configurable circuits. In some embodiments, the optimization includes moving the operations between different operational cycles and different configurable circuits in order to identify an assignment of the operations that satisfies a set of optimization criteria.
