Abstract :
A parallel waveform relaxation (PWR) circuit simulator has been developed to be an effective simulator through distributed computing. Its performance is comparable with other PWR using parallel computing such as CONCISE; moreover it is more flexible, economical and resource independent. PWR efficiency and accuracy are illustrated with an example.
