Description

BlueM.Opt is an optimization framework that can be coupled with an arbitrary simulation software (only current requirement: input data and results are to be stored in ASCII format). The optimization parameters, objective functions and (optionally) contraints can be defined in a flexible manner.

Optimization results are stored in a database.

BlueM.Opt integrates a graphing feature for displaying the optimization progress and results. Optimization results can also be analyzed in detail.

Where possible, BlueM.Opt utilizes multithreading in order to evaluate multiple parameter sets simultaneously.

List of currently implemented applications (simulation models):
