Hi Todd,
Thanks! When you say "the guidelines," do you mean that the four points you
mention are guidelines posted by somebody somewhere? If so, can you point me to
them? I Googled around and couldn't find them.
I get lots and lots of questions about this from frustrated newcomers, so
whatever material that is out there isn't scratching the itch IMHO...
BTW, what do you think about my proposal to use the term "dual-function model"
as opposed to "dual-mode model"? Better? Worse? Meh?
Best regards,
-- Colin

Colin,
I think the guidelines are straighforward:
1) All AMI models support Time-Domain analysis.
2) AMI models with "Init_Returns_Impulse = True" support Statistical Analysis
With the further clarification that:
3) AMI models with "Getwave_Exists = True" support waveform processing which is
usually (but not always) NLTV
4) AMI models with both "Init_Returns_Impulse = True" and "Getwave_Exists =
True" have algorithmic support for both simulation modes, such that comparing
the results of Statistical and Time-Domain simulations is a worthwhile exercise.
Todd.
