Abstract
A method of managing correlation data for a design implementation process can include identifying correlation data from each of a plurality of design applications. Each of the design applications can generate a circuit description and the correlation data can specify associations between circuit elements of different ones of the circuit descriptions. The method also can include storing the circuit descriptions and the correlation data independently of one another and determining a relationship among circuit elements of the circuit descriptions according to the correlation data.
