The head line says it all: what is Alteras definition of Quality of Result (QoR)? 

I read and hear the term a lot, but a proper definition or explanation of the term is nowhere to be found. Is QoR a property of an EDA tool e.g. Quartus Prime or of my hand written RTL code?

Altera uses the term in many different contexts. It can mean different things depending on it's usage. It could mean consistency/improvement (Fmax, area, etc..) or if it's in the context of an IP it means the IP has a consistent/improved bandwidth or quality of bandwidth (i.e. no starvation). It's an industry wide term so Altera uses the term just like everyone else.
