Abstract
Various embodiments provide a system for performing operations that comprise accessing an integrated circuit design that includes a clock tree interconnecting a clock source to a plurality of clock sinks. The operations include receiving a request to adjust a present timing offset of the clock tree to a target timing offset. In response, a group of clock sinks to be adjusted are identified to satisfy the request. The clock tree is then modified by moving a terminal of the group from a first location in the clock tree to a second location in the clock tree to update the clock tree. An indication is provided that the updated clock tree has been modified and complies with the target timing offset.
