Abstract :
A high-performance resistive bridging fault simulator SUPERB (Simulator Utilizing Parallel Evaluation of Resistive Bridges) is proposed. It is based on fault sectioning in combination with parallel-pattern or parallel-fault multiple- stuck-at simulation. It outperforms a conventional interval-based resistive bridging fault simulator by 60times to 120times while delivering identical results. Further competing tools are out-performed by several orders of magnitude.
