  • Abstract
    Co-simulation provides an architect or a designer the freedom to change the implementation of a sub-module and analyse the design. Variational analysis during design procedure is an important tool to ensure higher-yield during production. State of the art co-simulators uses Monte Carlo analysis method for variational analysis, which is a multi-run method, slow and outcomes are not completely covered. In this article we proposed a co-simulation environment which uses affine arithmetic as variational analysis method. The result is an efficient and completely covered co-simulation environment.
