Abstract
A method and system is provided for analyzing a package having components. The package may include electrical or computer components. The method and system uses a computer program to receive inputted data and extract data from files. The computer program also selects the best sub-program to analyze the data to compute the parameters for packaging the components and designing the package, and displays the results of the analysis.
Claims16
A method for analyzing a package having components using a computer program saved on computer readable medium including:
- inputting data into a computer program;
- determining which of a plurality of programs to use for analyzing the data and selecting a program;
- analyzing the data using the selected program to calculate parameters for packaging the components;
- and
- displaying the results of the analysis.
A computer program product including program instructions is saved on computer readable medium communicating with a computer system such that the computer uses the computer system program instructions for executing a method for analyzing a package comprising:
- inputting first data into a computer program;
- extracting second data from at least one file into the computer program;
- determining which of a plurality of programs is best for analyzing the first and second data and selecting a program;
- analyzing the first and second data using the selected program to provide parameters about packaging the components;
- calculating at least one parameter by using the first and second data to determine missing data;
- and
- displaying the results of the analysis.
An electrical package analysis system for analyzing an electrical package having components which comprises:
- a computer program saved on a computer readable medium;
- a computer system for executing the computer program, the computer system including a display and data entry device for a user to enter data into the computer program;
- the computer program being adapted to extract data from at least one file;
- and
- the computer program controlling a plurality of sub-programs and determining and selecting which of the plurality of sub-programs is used for analyzing the data entered by the user and extracted from at least one file to provide an analysis of the package including parameters for designing the package.
