  • Abstract
    As circuit sizes increase, a means to improve the performance of simulations is constantly demanded, without sacrificing the accuracy of the results. To achieve this goal, a new parallel scheduler is presented exploiting binary link formulations that allows modern multi-core processors to achieve superior performance. These improvements are obtained without sacrificing accuracy or resorting to iterative techniques.
