Abstract
Methods and systems perform a simulation on an integrated circuit design by applying a first value to a first variable and a second value to a second variable of the simulation to produce a first matrix corner simulation value. The methods and systems repeat the simulation using different values for the first and said second variables to produce a second matrix corner simulation value, a third matrix corner simulation value, and a fourth matrix corner simulation value. The methods and systems create a matrix, and the matrix has the first matrix corner simulation value, the second matrix corner simulation value, the third matrix corner simulation value, and the fourth matrix corner simulation value. The methods and systems interpolate all remaining values within the matrix based upon existing simulation values within the matrix.
