The system is collstructed by a host computer and I I transputers connected into a topologyof 'Super--Node' which is very suitable for simulation of stiff systems. An automatic software interface runin the host is developed to partition simulation model, either equations or block diagrams, into several equitable segments and then pack them into parallel simulation program to be executed in the parallel system.This interface frees simulation users from parallel programming to focus on their simulation experiments.展开更多
