Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: Design and test tools, such as automatic test-pattern generators (ATPG) and fault-simulators, work on a "flattened" simulation model of the entire design. Run-time performance is directly influenced by the number and complexity of simulation primitives in the flattened model. Moreover, the memory required to flatten and store the simulation model of current multi-million-gate designs may exceed the available address space of 32 bit computers.  present several model-optimization techniques that significantly reduce the number of simulation primitives and the associated memory usage while still preserving a complete, highly efficient flattened model. A commercial ATPG product implementing these techniques demonstrates fast simulation model construction for very large designs using a relatively small memory space.
