Methods and systems for computing threshold voltage degradation of transistors in an array of memory cells are disclosed. In accordance with one method, a process that models an expected usage of the array is selected. In addition, a hardware processor can run the process to populate the array with data over time to simulate the expected usage of the array. The method further includes compiling data that detail different durations at which each of the memory cells in the array stores 1 or at which each of the memory cells in the array stores 0. For each separate grouping of memory cells that share a common duration of the different compiled durations, a threshold voltage degradation is determined for each transistor in the corresponding grouping of cells based on at least one biased temperature instability model.
