A Study of Relaxation Techniques for the Transient Analysis of Digital Circuits

In the VLSI microelectronics era, the cost of the immense CPU time and memory storage for a "standard" circuit simulator has become prohibitive. In order to achieve dramatic improvement in the performance of the circuit simulator, there are two principal points of departure from the "standard" simulation approach, namely, "tearing" decomposition and "relaxation" decomposition.('1)
