Abstract

A method including evaluating a configuration of a device for a selected device parameter and determining a value of the selected device parameter in a first optimal configuration that improves a performance of the device is provided. The method includes determining a sensitivity of the performance of the device relative to the value of the selected device parameter and determining a performance metric that differentiates the first optimal configuration with a second optimal configuration based on the sensitivity of the performance of the device. The method includes ranking the first optimal configuration and the second optimal configuration based on the performance metric and simulating the performance of the device with a second device parameter in one of the first optimal configuration or the second optimal configuration, based on the ranking. A system and a computer readable medium to perform the above method are also provided.
