Abstract
A method for designing a system on a target device includes synthesizing the system. The system is mapped. The system is placed on the target device. The system is routed. Physical synthesis is performed on the system where a first descendant thread is spawned to run in parallel with an existing thread where the first descendant thread is executing a different optimization strategy than the existing thread but on a same netlist as the existing thread.
