     In a nutshell, PLE synthesis extracts information from your design/libraries and tries with some statistical methods to find out the expected capacitance and slew for your nets. Based on that information RTL Compiler tries to synthesize as best as possible to help you meet your timing.

     

    RCP is a different story. RCP uses the floorplan of your design to do physical-awra synthesis and placement. By letting RC know where the cells will be placed, RC now has information like wire length, congestion etc, which in turns allows it to make smarted architectural decisions

     

    If you want more help, please let me know. You can also take a look at the manuals, both the RCP one(for rcp) and the RC user guide (for PLE)
