Abstract
A method for selecting and placing of an IP block in a SOC design based on a topology and/or a density of the SOC design is disclosed. Embodiments include: displaying a user interface; causing, at least in part, a presentation in the user interface of a topology and density view of a SOC design that includes an IP block; and modifying, prior to a tape-out of the SOC design, topology and/or density transition for the IP block in the SOC design based on the presentation.
