Abstract :
In this paper a new algorithm for switch level simulation is presented. The algorithm is compatible with classical time wheel mechanisms for logic simulation and therefore allows for assignable delay modeling also at the switch level. The key to this algorithm is a local relaxation method which takes care of localized bilateral effects. The algorithm is shown to be 0(n) and proven to converge to a unique solution.
