Optimization of electronic circuits

Several types of parameters influence the behaviour of electronic circuits and have to be taken into account when optimizing appropriate performance functions : design parameters, manufacturing process parameters, and operating parameters. The performance functions and the constraints can be costly and are subject to noise. For both the dependency on can be highly nonlinear. In this talk we will describe our in-house developed method for optimization and our experiences with that. Also some new directions for further research will be described.
