Methods, systems, and computer program product for implementing an electronic design with optimization maps

A system for implementing an electronic design with optimization maps, comprising:

• non-transitory computer accessible storage medium storing thereupon program code;
• and
• one or more one or more embedded circuit modules stored at least partially in memory of and functioning in conjunction with at least one microprocessor of one or more computing systems, wherein the at least one microprocessor of the one or more computing systems is configured to execute at least the one or more optimization modules at least to:
• identify a specification of an electronic design;
• identify a parameter for optimization, at least one optimization target for the parameter, and initial grids for the electronic design;
• determine an optimization map for the electronic design at least by:
• constraining a state space into a constrained state space of the parameter for determining one or more discrete values for the initial grids;
• and
• performing one or more analyses that refine the initial grids for the optimization map with respect to the parameter and the at least one optimization target based at least in part the one or more discrete values;
• and
• implement the electronic design based at least in part upon the optimization map, wherein the optimization map corresponds to the one or more discrete values.

An article of manufacture comprising a non-transitory computer accessible storage medium having stored thereupon a sequence of instructions which, when executed by at least one processor or at least one processor core executing one or more threads, causes the at least one processor or the at least one processor core to perform a set of acts for implementing an electronic design with optimization maps, the set of acts comprising:

• identifying a specification of an electronic design;
• identifying a parameter for optimization, at least one optimization target for the parameter, and initial grids for the electronic design;
• determining, at one or more optimization modules that are stored at least partially in memory of and function in conjunction with at least one microprocessor of a computing system, an optimization map for the electronic design at least by:
• constraining a state space into a constrained state space of the parameter for determining one or more discrete values for the initial grids;
• and
• performing one or more analyses that refine the initial grids for the optimization map with respect to the parameter and the at least one optimization target based at least in part the one or more discrete values;
• and
• implementing the electronic design based at least in part upon the optimization map, wherein the optimization map corresponds to the one or more discrete values.
