Abstract
A method (and system) of providing optimization repeatability in an on-demand computing environment removes variability in an optimization model instance and can be exemplarily implemented in a service architecture. The method and system receives a plurality of physical data instances, which are different representations of the same logical data model, and transforms the plurality of physical data instances into a normalized physical data instance, which can be combined with an optimization model to form a unique optimization model instance, thereby providing repeatability in solving optimization problems.
