User-constrained delay redistribution

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
• determine that a model is associated with an optimization,
• the model including a plurality of model elements and a plurality of delay elements,
• the optimization including:
• modifying throughput associated with the model,
• modifying a critical path associated with the model, and
• pipelining the model:
• the model being associated with a total quantity of delay;
• receive delay information that identifies a model element, of the plurality of model elements, and a constraint value associated with the model element;
• determine a quantity of accumulated delay based on the model;
• determine one or more retiming values associated with the plurality of model elements based on comparing the quantity of accumulated delay associated with the model element to the constraint value associated with the model element;
• redistribute, via distributed pipelining and based on the optimization, quantities of delay among the plurality of delay elements associated with the model to obtain a redistributed model, based on the one or more retiming values, to satisfy the constraint value associated with the model element, and to maintain the total quantity of delay associated with the model,
• where the quantities of delay are redistributed to shorten the critical path between two of the plurality of delay elements without adding additional latency,
• where latency is a time delay between an input of the model and output of the model generated based on the input;
• and
• provide the redistributed model.
