Sherman I am not sure if this helps or muddies the waters. But we have posted a presentation, SSO Noise Effects in RTAX FPGAs, on http://www.aeng.com/power_integrity.htm that discusses how we have characterized the RTAX2000 SSO Noise/PDN performance and been able to model it.

With adding simple spice definition for noise source and PRBS and/or real IBIS drivers you can achieve time-domain simulation. And you can call your PRBS text file into your circuit definition. For PI effect you can include all capacitor parasitics into their models.
