Exchange of black box models

[Franck]

Hello all,

All my apologies in advance for my newbie question! In the near future I will be developing part of a FPGA code, which will contain proprietary information. This code/module will be provided to an external party for integration in the overall FPGA architecture. As such I would like to provide this module as a black box but still allows my counterpart to be able to optimise the overall FPGA. What would be the best way to proceed?

Thanks!

Franck
