Method and apparatus for performing profile guided optimization for first in first out sizing

Abstract:

A method for designing a system on a target device includes generating a hardware description language (HDL) representation of profile data collecting hardware for a HDL of the system during a high-level compilation to collect profile data that includes an arrival rate associated with data transmitted to a buffer and a service rate of a service node associated with the buffer. The HDL of the system is compiled to generate a data file that describes a synthesis, placement and routing of the system on the target device. The target device is programmed with the data file to physically transform components on the target device to implement the system.
