The IBM Yorktown simulation engine |
| |
| Abstract: | The IBM Yorktown Simulation Engine (YSE) is a special-purpose, highly parallel programmable machine for the gate-level simulation of logic. A YSE has been constructed at the IBM T. J. Watson Research Center. A full configured YSE could simulate up to two million gates at a speed of over three billion gate simulations per second, it is estimated that a YSE could simulate an IBM 3081 processor, at the gate level, at a rate of 1000 System/370 instructions per second. This paper describes the YSE architecture and software support. |
