In this paper, we describe methods to utilize the multi-core CPU as well as computers connected by internet to perform large-scale MOSFET circuit simulations. That is, both distributed and parallel computing are utilized to do the simulation. Parallel Newton Relaxation and Combining Simulation Method (CSM) are our numerical tools to accomplish parallel and distributed computing respectively. We note that both coursed and fine grained parallel computing strategies are used in this paper. All proposed methods have been implemented and tested. Experimental results justify pleasing effects of all proposed methods.
