N2 - This paper proposes and evaluates a SIMD parallelization method for an application for LSI logic simulation. The proposal method converts a net list into a parallel and distributed program code so as to make the code SIMD parallelized. As experiments to evaluate our proposal method, tasks in SIMD arithmetic logical units on Cell/B.E., and we measure that elapsed time. In the results of experiments, over 80% tasks are SIMD parallelized and the program with a shuffle instruction and a SIMD instruction reduces computation time by over 90%.
