<p class="whs9">This option simplifies the total number
of logic expressions in a design, and then collapses the logic in order
to meet user objectives such as density, speed and timing constraints.
This optimization targets CPLD architecture, making it possible to collapse
to the macrocell limits, reduce levels of logic, and minimize the total
number of p-terms.</p>
<p class="whs10">Multi-level Logic Optimization optimizes
all combinatorial logic arcs spanning from an input pad or register output
to an output pad or register input.</p>
<p class="whs11">Multi-level Logic Optimization operates
on combinatorial logic according to the following rules.</p>
<p class="whs12">If timing constraints are set, the program
optimizes for speed to meet timing constraints.</p>
