Abstract
Methods and apparatus are provided for receiving performance constraints for implementing a system. A system tool receives constraints such as throughput, latency, power consumption, resource usage, etc. and generates an interconnection fabric using the constraint information. The interconnection fabric includes ports adapters used to connect master components and slave components. In some instances, port adapters and components are intelligently selected and connected using the constraint information.
