A method for designing a system on a target device includes identifying a timing exception for a portion of a signal path. An area on the target device that includes components affected by the timing exception. Register retiming is performed where pipeline registers are added at boundaries of the area.

Method and apparatus for performing register retiming in the presence of false path timing analysis exceptions

A method for designing a system on a target device includes identifying a timing exception for a portion of a signal path. An area on the target device that includes components affected by the timing exception. Constraints are generated that prevent registers residing in the area from being used for register retiming.

Partitioned global address space (PGAS) programming language source code is retrieved by an executed PGAS compiler. At least one shared memory array access indexed by an affine expression that includes a distinct thread identifier that is constant and different for each of a group of program execution threads targeted to execute the PGAS source code is identified within the PGAS source code. It is determined whether the at least one shared memory array access results in a local shared memory access by all of the group of program execution threads for all references to the at least one shared memory array access during execution of a compiled executable of the PGAS source code. A direct memory access executable code is generated for each shared memory array access determined to result in the local shared memory access by all of the group of program execution threads.
