In this paper, we discuss the effect of simultaneous tunneling events on single electron circuits. Single electron circuits are classified into two types: the first is a small single electron circuit with one island, and the second type is a large circuit with multi islands. The simulation of co-tunneling process is incorporated in a new version of our simulator MUSES. The simulation results for small circuits' type are compared with the analytical equations for certain range of temperature that is presented by the founders of the phenomena. Also the results for large circuits' type are compared with the widely accepted nanostructures simulator SIMON.
