Abstract
Method and code for dedicated resource placement enhancement is described. More particularly, a local area of a network is obtained for determining placement options of logic blocks to increase availability of dedicated resources within the local area. Each placement option is scored. This scoring may be based in part on whether a signal is to be propagated over a dedicated resource, and whether this signal is presently meeting a slack or target delay. Logic blocks, and therefore the dedicated resources, are placed after scoring.
