Abstract
Embodiments of the disclosed systems and methods establish quantitative relationships between system features and system objectives. In some embodiments, the features have a plurality of feature values related to the objective and the methods comprise analyzing a mathematical functional relationship between the plurality of feature values and the objective to create a plurality of objective values reflecting the ability of the feature values to satisfy the objective, selecting a feature value and analyzing the relationship to create an objective value; and generating an objective measure reflecting the objective value. In some embodiments, the mathematical function comprises a polynomial interpolation. In some embodiments, the features are a fidelity dimension and the feature values are values of fidelity in a processor based aircraft simulator.
