THU Power Grid Benchmarks
All the power grid benchmarks presented in this website are standard SPICE format which are compatible with IBM Power Grid Benchmarks. They are extended from a smaller power grid case which is drawn from real design. These benchmarks size is larger than IBM PG benchmarks so we hope these benchmarks will motivate new research in this area, and result in breakthroughs in this challenging problem.
