		In discussing the SPICE project with Don Pederson, it is clear that the long term research funding commitment ARO made to Pederson’s effort was instrumental in giving him the flexibility to continue his work to completion over many years.
		The industrial impact of Pederson’s early work in EDA, then circuit simulation, is best measured by the use of the technology he and his colleagues developed over a quarter century ago.
		However, the original vision of Pederson’s SPICE program development team was to put together the best combination of algorithms, to code them in as flexible and portable a style as possible, and to make them freely available.
