The Pointer framework automatically parses the input and output files of this simulation software in order to pass the data to the optimizer, which controls input selection in each design cycle. The framework also controls the execution of the simulation software over various software and hardware platforms. Synaps has created many successful vertical applications with Pointer. In each of these applications the Pointer tools are the best of class. Download both pointer papers.
Pointer is very easy to use.
I was able to begin a new problem within minutes and have been able to solve problems which my previous methods would never have obtained. The ability to obtain a trained optimization routine has been extremely useful. I have been able to take problems which run for hours and can now obtain the solution within minutes using the training procedure.
