Abstract :
The reduction of calculation time is a very important task for three-dimensional semiconductor process and device simulation. We present a fully parallelization scheme for three-dimensional finite element calculation. That is parallel advancing front meshing algorithm and parallel finite element calculating algorithm using substructure method. The new parallelization algorithm is implemented on GRAY T3E
