Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Device simulation with Monte Carlo method,in which caxriers in a device axe treated as paxticles can deal with nonlinear physical phenomenon.Because Monte Carlo method is a statistical numerical method,if n times accuracy is required by reducing statistical errors,n^2 samples axe needed.In this paper,we propose an algorithm for Monte Carlo device simulation with highly parallel processors.The processor architecture we suppose is high speed,one way ring bus structure.We evaluated the algorithm by software simulation using multitask facilities.Major parts of Monte Carlo device simulation are divided into potential caliculation by solving poisson equations and determination of motion of paxticles. Each part of the algorithm is implemented in parallel.We demonstrate an estimation that total execution speed will efficiently increase up to 100 processors on the ring bus architecture.
