A method of preparing a circuit model for simulation comprises decomposing the circuit model having a number of latches into a plurality of extended latch boundary components and partitioning the plurality of extended latch boundary components. Decomposing and partitioning the circuit model may include decomposing hierarchical cells of the circuit model, and using a constructive bin-packing heuristic to partition the plurality of extended latch boundary components. The partitioned circuit model is compiled, and simulated on a uni-processor, a multi-processor, or a distributed processing computer system.
