Abstract
A method and an apparatus provide a quantitative process simulation model with systematic search and optimization techniques to automatically find and compare improvement strategies and especially provide for inspecting at least one device control instruction. Input parameters are transformed into output parameters, while a performance value is measured and based on said measurement appropriate device control instructions, which are used for transforming the input parameters into output parameters, are output. Application can be found in several scenarios related to process engineering, process optimization and especially optimizing performance values for operating a device.
Claims25
A method for inspecting at least one device control instruction, comprising the steps of:
- transforming at least one provided input parameter into at least one provided output parameter by executing a device control instruction;
- evaluating a measured capability value of said device, said capability value describing a performance parameter of said device executing said device control instruction;
- and
- outputting said device control instruction in case a specified evaluation result is determined.
An apparatus for inspection of at least one device control instruction comprising:
- a transformation unit for transforming at least one provided input parameter into at least one provided output parameter by executing a device control instruction;
- an evaluation unit for evaluating a measured capability value of said device, said capability value describing a performance parameter of said device executing said device control instruction;
- and
- an output unit for outputting said device control instruction in case a specified evaluation result is determined.
A computer program product comprising a computer readable medium comprising instructions which when executed on a computer perform the following steps:
- transforming at least one provided input parameter into at least one provided output parameter by executing a device control instruction;
- evaluating a measured capability value of said device, said capability value describing a performance parameter of said device executing said device control instruction;
- and
- outputting said device control instruction in case a specified evaluation result is determined.
