Abstract
Method and apparatus for implementing a circuit design for an integrated circuit is described. In one example, a first version of the circuit design is processed () with at least one design tool. Statistical data is captured () for the at least one design tool and operational attributes thereof are automatically adjusted () in response to the statistical data. A second version of the circuit design is processed () with the at least one design tool having the adjusted operational attributes. In another example, the circuit design is processed () with at least one design tool in a first iteration. Statistical data is captured () for the at least one design tool and operational attributes thereof are automatically adjusted () for a second iteration in response to the statistical data of the first iteration. The circuit design is re-processed () with the at least one design tool having the adjusted operational attributes in the second iteration.
