Abstract
In one embodiment, a tangible, non-transitory, computer-readable medium, includes instructions to receive a first circuit design, determine one or more variations of the first circuit design using register retiming with speculative circuit design changes, determine one or more performance improvements of the variations when fed clock signals over the first circuit design, determine one or more tradeoffs of the one or more variations of the first circuit design in comparison to the first circuit design, display a summary of the one or more variations of the first circuit design, the one or more performance improvements, and the one or more tradeoffs, and provide a user-selectable user interface element to enable selection of the first circuit design, at least one of the one or more variations of the first circuit design, or a combination thereof.
