Xyce is an open source, SPICE-compatible, high-performance analog
-circuit simulator, capable of solving extremely large circuit problems
-by supporting large-scale parallel computing platforms. It also supports
-serial execution on all common desktop platforms, and small-scale parallel
-runs on Unix-like systems. In addition to analog electronic simulation,
-Xyce has also been used to investigate more general network systems,
-such as neural networks and power grids.

The Xyce Parallel Electronic Simulator is a SPICE-compatible circuit
-simulator, developed internally at Sandia National Laboratories and funded
-by the National Nuclear Security Administration's Advanced Simulation and
-Computing (ASC) Campaign. In continuous development since 1999, Xyce is
-designed to run on large-scale parallel computing platforms, though it
-also executes efficiently on a variety of architectures, including single
-processor workstations. As a mature platform for large-scale parallel
-circuit simulation, Xyce supports standard capabilities available from
-commercial simulators, in addition to a variety of devices and models
-specific to Sandia's needs.
