N2 - Along with the fast evolution of programmable and reconfigurable systems, hardware compilers also advanced towards enhanced capabilities and optimization power. The responsibility of early hardware compilers was to map a subset of procedures or time critical computations onto hardware, where reconfigurable hardware was mostly utilized as a co-processing unit. A new generation of hardware compilers are needed to create frameworks for mapping significantly complex applications onto programmable devices. This can be achieved by empowering hardware compilers with new methodologies to increase their efficiency. Design Planning is one such concept. In this paper, we introduce techniques to enable a smooth, non-restrictive interaction between different compilation stages. These techniques are collectively referred to as Design Planning.
