Abstract

A method for designing a system on a target device utilizing field programmable gate arrays is disclosed. A design is synthesized for the system. Components in the design are mapped onto resources on the target device. Placement locations are determined for the components on the target device. Components to replicate are identified in response to criticality determined from the placement locations.
