W2312EP/ET Transient Convolution Distributed Computing 8-pack
The Advanced Design System (ADS) Transient Convolution Distributed Computing 8-pack
accelerates signal integrity batch-mode parameter sweeps on workstations connected to a
distributed computing cluster. This combination enables signal integrity designers to run these
sweeps six to eight times faster than on a single compute node of equal performance. The
licenses can be “stacked” in packs of eight, yielding even greater speed up.
This product speeds up parameter sweeps for two combinations:
–– Batch Simulation Controller with Transient Simulator, and
–– Batch Simulation Controller with Channel Simulator.
Figure 4. The Transient Convolution Distributed Computing 8-pack is controlled by the Simulation Manager tab
of the ADS Simulation Setup menu. This schematic includes parameter sweeps with Batch Simulation Controller
with Channel Simulator, but the product also supports Batch Simulation Controller with Transient Simulator (not
shown in this figure).
The Transient Convolution Distributed Computing 8-pack presently only supports a configura-
tion where:
–– The workstation is running Linux.
–– The distributed computing nodes are running Linux with either Load Sharing Facility (LSF)
or Sun Grid Engine.
