High Performance Computing in nanoscale electrothermal modeling and simulations

The High Performance Computing (HPC) become a more and more popular tool in the numerical modeling and simulations of the complex systems. In the case of electro-thermal analysis of any electronics device a most precise approach is this of complex system which is very well situated to the HPC applications. At the nanoscale electro-thermal analysis there’s very often impossible to avoid mass computations. To do that an especially dedicated theory is needed as well some practical issues become currently the topics of high importance. An overview of both theory and practical trends is presented in this paper.
