Team,
I agree with this edit. There is a difference between the definitions of
"impulse_matrix" and "impulse response matrix." The impulse response matrix is
the matrix of data independent of programming or model representation.
Impulse_matrix is the model variable used to reference a block of memory where
the data matrix is stored in an array that has been defined specifically for
this programming tool. The number_of_rows parameter refers to the data matrix
so that the program can determine how to split the internal array to transform
it back to the data matrix.
I propose that we add this to the editing task list.
Regards,
Weston

Clarification of number_of_rows.
Hi,
There appears to be an incorrect definition for number_of_rows in the IBIS v7.0
specification on page 203.
IBIS v7.0 specification mentions 'number_of_rows is the number of rows in the
impulse_matrix'. It should mention that the 'number_of_rows is the number of
rows in the impulse response matrix'.
Please see page 201 where at the specification mentions 'The single dimensional
array of "impulse_matrix" is formed by concatenating the columns of an impulse
response matrix, starting with the first column and ending with the last
column.'.
For example,
1] If one victim and zero aggressors then,
double *impulse_matrix= [1000x1]
long number_of_rows= 1000
long aggressors= 0
2] If one victim and two aggressors then,
double *impulse_matrix= [3000x1]
long number_of_rows= 1000
long aggressors= 2
Do you agree with the above? Feel free to share a different view if I happen to
be reading the specification incorrectly.
Regards,
Hansel
