large-scale parallel computing platforms. It also supports serial execution on by supporting large-scale parallel computing platforms. It also supports
all common desktop platforms, and small-scale parallel runs on Unix-like serial execution on all common desktop platforms, and small-scale parallel
systems. In addition to analog electronic simulation, Xyce has also been used runs on Unix-like systems. In addition to analog electronic simulation,
