Abstract
Progress in algorithms and simulators that exploit parallel computers are reported. Results using two generations of the Intel iPSC architecture for device analysis of 2D and 3D bipolar problems are used to illustrate substantial progress being made in parallelization. New approaches in the areas of hydrodynamic and Monte Carlo analysis are also discussed.Keywords
