ABSTRACT:
A method and structure for simulating a circuit comprising inputting, from a customer site, initial memory states, and initial input signals to core logic within a host site, simulating the circuit utilizing the host site and the customer site connected though a wide area network (wherein the host site contains the core logic and the customer site contains customer logic, the core logic and the customer logic forming the circuit), comparing test output signals with the desired output signals, and altering the customer logic until the test output signals are consistent with the desired output signals.
