Analytical Model Solution Module

Several solution techniques for obtaining steady state and transient measures are currently available in the TANGRAM-II environment. (See [#!SouG86!#,#!SouG96!#,#!transol2000!#,#!SouG96!#] and also [#!billy-book!#,#!book-escola92!#] for references on some of the techniques implemented.) Since the tool was designed mainly to be used for research and education, a few traditional solution methods were implemented, as well as recently-developed algorithms. The tool provides several graphical interfaces to allow the specification of parameter values and to choose the appropriate solution technique. The main analytical solvers implemented in TANGRAM-II are shown in Figure .
