[0004] However, the inventor found in the process of implementing the present invention that in the prior art, the above-mentioned integrated circuit frequency domain simulation calculation process of the electromagnetic response characteristics of frequency points involves a large number of large-scale numerical calculations of the same type, while conventional parallel computing Parallelization is basically aimed at a single computing instance, and parallelism is achieved in the computing part of a large number of cycles. The parallel particles are usually very fine, which leads to a large amount of data exchange between different processes, resulting in a reduction in the efficiency of parallel computing; in addition, the previous parallel strategy did not target different The computing complexity of the calculation module divides parallel computing into different levels, but they are all parallelized at the same level, resulting in a large amount of waiting time for the master process to collect the calculation results of each slave process at different stages during the parallel computing process, making The efficiency of parallel computing is further low; moreover, in order to obtain the electromagnetic response curve of the integrated circuit with smaller errors, it is usually necessary to calculate the response characteristics of a large number of different frequency points, and the parallel computing efficiency in the above-mentioned prior art is low, It is difficult to meet the realistic demand that the calculation of the overall frequency point response characteristics of multi-layer VLSI frequency domain simulation still has high computational efficiency
