Abstract

A portable and flexible testbed is presented that enables an unbiased comparison of different methods for DDES. The great variety of algorithms that have been proposed up to now is subdivided into a small number of fundamentally different approaches. Criteria for the classification are the distribution of functions and data structures and the way processes are synchronized. Based on this classification, four methods have been selected and applied to a gate level logic simulator.

This work has been partially funded by the DFG (“Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft”, German science foundation) under contract No. SFB 342, TP A1.
