Abstract

Post-routing processing of a circuit design may include determining, using a processor, a baseline delay for a path of a routed circuit design, comparing, using the processor, the baseline delay of the path with a timing constraint of the path, and selectively applying, according to the comparing, a structural netlist optimization to the path resulting in an optimized path using a processor.
