I was wondering about the parameter passing alternatives and thought of something that may be better than what we left off with in the last IBIS-ATM meeting. Instead of using a two-keyword approach, something like this: [Algorithmic Model <modelName>] [Model Parameter <ParameterFileName>] I thought we could perhaps do a single keyword approach in which we give the parameter file name as an argument to the algorithmic model call, something like this: [Algorithmic Model <modelName(ParameterFileName)>] The rule would be to have one (or no) argument to the ModelName() and this argument would always be a file name that holds all the parameters. Any comments? By the way, we have already done this with the IBIS Macro Library's IBIS buffer models and the accompanying Perl script which extracts the IV and Vt data from the IBIS file for them. (Ambrish, who wrote the Perl script is very familiar with this concept...)
