Abstract

A technique for programmatically obtaining experimental measurements for model construction. A user provides criteria for the model, such as computational algorithms which characterize behavior of the real system, specifications of experiments to be performed on the real system for collecting experimental data from the real system, an identification of sought parameters which are to be derived from results of the experiments and desired tolerance constraints on the sought parameters. From experimental data collected from the real system and from the provided criteria, the inventive method and apparatus programmatically determines in an iterative loop which additional experiments are to be performed in order to achieve the desired tolerance constraints. After one or more iterations of the loop, the values for the sought parameters are determined within the desired tolerance constraints.
