Abstract
As the complexity of designs increases there is a need to accurately model timing constraints for early design closure. When done correctly, they help not only to achieve faster timing closure but also reduce iterations between front-end and back-end teams. In reality constraints are constantly being tweaked as the design is being pushed from RTL to post layout. This requires the design to be partitioned appropriately and the constraints to be managed effectively so that the design intent is preserved at every step.
