  • Abstract
    We show how intense exploitation of multi-core architectures allowed us to cut by up to an order of magnitude the execution times of a Multi-Subband Monte Carlo (MSMC) simulator. The result brings simulations with the MSMC method out of the strictly academic domain and close to the execution time threshold for effective use in R&D departments of semiconductor research centres and industries.
