A Novel Technique for Efficient Parallel Implementation of a Classical Logic/ Fault Simulation Problem

View publication

Abstract

Existing methods in logic/fault simulation of VLSI array logic treat the problem as a nonnumeric one in which the basic primitives involved are Boolean operations, string matching/manipulation operations, etc. This paper describes a novel technique for reformulating the problem in terms of standard vector and matrix operation primitives which are well-supported on all scientific supercomputers, high-end mainframes, and minisupercomputers which provide vector/parallel hardware and software. The overall computing environment is assumed to be a scientific/engineering one, with Fortran as the primary coding medium and the hardware biased toward numerically intensive applications. © 1988 IEEE
