Abstract
In a process for analyzing simulation results and providing such results in terms that are familiar to the circuit designer, user-defined primitives, or tiles, are used to reduce large quantities of simulation data into meaningful information. Incremental simulation results which are acquired during the simulation are distributed to the appropriate tiles using a specialized data structure that includes reporting simulation results from the simulator using a node index.
