Abstract

A technique is presented for formulating the logic/fault simulation of VLSI array logic in terms of standard vector and matrix operation primitives that are well supported on all scientific supercomputers, high-end mainframes, and minisupercomputers that 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.
