Abstract

A method of partitioning a circuit design can include identifying a circuit design in which components of the circuit design are assigned to each of a plurality of regions, wherein each region corresponds to a physical portion of an integrated circuit. A maximum oversubscription region can be determined for a selected component type from the plurality of regions. A target region from the plurality of regions can be selected that is adjacent to the region of maximum oversubscription. The method also can include re-assigning, by a processor, a selected number of components of the maximum oversubscription region to the target region.
