Abstract
A software product includes instructions stored on computer-readable media, that when executed by a computer, perform steps for optimizing an optical system design and a digital system design. The instructions are for simulating an optical model of the optical system design, simulating a digital model of the digital system design, analyzing simulated output of the optical model and simulated output of the digital model, to produce a score, modifying the optical model and the digital model, based upon the score, controlling re-execution of the instructions for simulating the optical model, the instructions for simulating the digital model, the instructions for analyzing and the instructions for modifying to produce an optimized optical model and an optimized digital model, and outputting predicted performance of the optimized optical and digital models.
