Abstract
Configuring a hardware system includes providing a first data representative of a first assignment of a multitude of wires to a multitude of physical connections between a multitude of logic circuits of the hardware system, and transforming the first data into a second data representative of a second assignment of the multitude of wires to the multitude of physical connections. The transforming includes calculating a multitude of latencies each associated with a selected one of the multitude of wires, and assigning a first subset of the multitude of wires to at least one of the multitude of physical connections in accordance with a first improvement goal. The transforming causes the value of each one of the multitude of latencies that are associated with the first subset to be less than or equal to the first improvement goal, when the second data is used to configure the hardware system.
