  • Logic placement using positionally asymmetrical partitioning algorithm
    Patent number: 5224056
    Abstract: A modified partitioning method for placement of a circuit design into a programmable integrated circuit device (PICD), the PICD having a specific distribution of physical resources corresponding to a specific circuit structure. The circuit design includes a plurality of circuit elements which include specific circuit elements which correspond to the specific circuit structure. The modified method includes the steps of identifying the specific circuit elements and partitioning the plurality of circuit elements such that the identified specific circuit elements are placed in a location corresponding to the specific physical distribution of resources.
