Abstract :
The implementation of a distributed digital logic simulation algorithm on a network of workstations is presented. The simulation of digital circuits is done using a demand driven approach. The simulation is performed on a network of workstations using the Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) software. The use of the PVM as a platform for parallel and distributed applications is assessed in the light of the test results. The feasibility of running parallel logical simulation algorithms on such platform is considered
