Each new major release of any of our software requires you to ensure you have the latest version in your license file. The features are the same, but the version numbers get increased (this is to ensure that a customer is on maintenance). You can order updated licenses yourself through support.cadence.com and then going to Software->Order Licenses (or something like that). If the simulation is getting slower per iteration, it's highly unlikely that running through OCEAN will make it any better (since it's the same simulator and netlist, including analysis statements underneath). The primary way is to run Monte Carlo using OCEAN XL, which is in essence a scripted equivalent of the ADE XL flow. The old monteRun/monteCarlo functions should still work for legacy support - but they end up the same underneath. Regards, Andrew.
