Tool support for automatic optimisation Sample Clauses

Tool support for automatic optimisation. The main tool support for automatic optimisation in MAENAD is the HiP-HOPS optimisation engine, developed by the University of Hull as part of the HiP-HOPS analysis tool. HiP-HOPS implements a multi-objective genetic algorithm to allow for the automatic optimisation of system models (in HiP-HOPS format). Currently, only three objectives are natively supported - unavailability (as determined by the HiP-HOPS safety analysis engine, which is based on FTA) cost, and weight. The latter two are calculated as a simple sum of component costs/weights.
