SPICE for Windows 95/98/NT

چکیده
The analogue circuit simulator SPICE was originally developed at the University of California at Berkeley. It was has been constantly upgraded and maintained at Berkeley from 1972 to 1992, when the last official release 3f4 was published. The UNIX based source code is still available as freeware at ftp://ic.berkeley.edu/pub/Spice3/. Although the research at Berkeley has stopped, many commercial companies continue to use the Berkeley code as the core of their SPICE compilations with no or little modification. Since we have good experience with the original SPICE 3f4 code on UNIX machines, we decided to modify the code in order to run it on the PC running Windows operating system. In this paper, we present a fully functional compilation of SPICE 3f4 for Windows 95/98/NT. Our compilation offers a native SPICE environment with an interactive interpreter known from UNIX operating systems. In the paper, a PC version is introduced through two simulation cases. All simulation files as well as the simulator itself may be downloaded from http://fides.fe.uni-lj.si/spice.

New optimising feature in SPICE
The field of optimisation is still not appropriately covered in modern computer programs for circuit analysis as SPICE, which was originally developed at the University of California at Berkeley. The last official release of SPICE was published in 1992 and includes interactive interpreter language called Nutmeg, which is at first glance very convenient for coding optimisation loops. But it turn...
متن کاملRobustness Testing of the Microsoft Win32 API
Although Microsoft Windows is being deployed in mission-critical applications, little quantitative data has been published about its robustness. We present the results of executing over two million Ballista-generated exception handling tests across 237 functions and system calls involving six Windows variants, as well as similar tests conducted on the Linux operating system. Windows 95, Windows...
متن کاملPorting the Coda File System to Windows
We first describe how the Coda distributed filesystem was ported to Windows 95 and 98. Coda consists of user level cache managers and servers and kernel level code for filesystem support. Severe reentrancy difficulties in the Win32 environment on this platform were overcome by extending the DJGPP DOS C compiler package with kernel level support for sockets and more flexible memory management. W...
متن کاملImplementations of Montgomery Multiplication Algorithms in Machine Languages
Software implementations of public-key algorithms such RSA and Diffie-Hellman are often desired because of their flexibility and cost effectiveness. In order to obtain the required level of performance on a selected platform, developers turn to implement efficient algorithms in machine (assembly) languages for basic (kernel) operations. Among these basic operations, modular multiplication and e...
متن کاملSPICE based Circuit Analysis using Web Pages
An application called the Spice Internet Package (SIP) has been developed for use through the Internet and intranet networks. The SIP provides an interface that is operating independent, which allows Spice simulation and analysis to be performed from any computer that has a web browser on the Internet or intranet. One can access the Spice Internet Package and try some examples with the password...
