CAGE User's Guide

Starting CAGE

To start the application, type

• cage
  

The view of CAGE depends on two things:

• The process or object type that you are viewing
• The item you highlight in the branch display (tree)

When you open CAGE, it looks like this.

CAGE includes a Processes pane and a Data Objects pane to help you identify the type of calibration you want to do, and the data objects that you intend to use.

Processes

The Processes pane enables you to select the type of calibration that you want to perform with CAGE. For example, if you want to calibrate lookup tables by comparing them to a model, select Feature.

The Processes pane has three buttons:

• Feature shows the Feature view, with any tables or strategies that are associated with that feature.

• For more information, see Feature Calibrations.

• Manual Calibration enables you to calibrate tables manually. It also acts as a store for all the tables and normalizers in your session.
• Tradeoff shows the Tradeoff view, with a list of the tables and models to display.

• For more information, see Tradeoff Calibrations.

Data Objects

The Data Objects pane lets you identify the different objects that you need to perform the calibrations with CAGE. For example, if you want to fill lookup tables by comparing them to models, you need to include models. Select Models to view the models in your session.

The Data Objects pane has these buttons:

• Variable Dictionary stores all the variables, constants and formulas in your session. Click Variable Dictionary to view and edit any variables in any part of your session.

• For more information, see Setting Up Your Variable Items.

• Models stores all of the models in your session. Click Models to show a graphical display of the models in your session.

• For more information, see Setting Up Your Models.

• Data Sets enables you to see the data produced by your objects, and enables you to compare this with other data such as experimental data.

• For more information, see Data Sets.
