设计优化的现代原则
我们对优化的看法不受以前技术的限制，因为它基于一套新的原则，允许更自然地流动思想和努力。这八项原则是 Red Cedar Technology 软件开发、咨询服务和培训领域所有工作的基石：

原则 1：从好的概念开始，而不一定从好的设计开始。

让优化器负责寻找好的设计。

原则 2：尽早并经常进行优化。

不要只在设计周期结束时或用尽所有其他方法之后进行优化。

原则 3：定义需要解决的设计问题。

而不是某个优化策略可以解决的问题。

原则 4：优化系统交互。

而不仅仅是组件。

原则 5：让优化算法找出如何搜索设计空间。

通常无法提前猜测哪种搜索方法和调整参数效果最好。

原则 6：不要使用模型的模型进行优化。

响应面或替代模型通常会增加工作量和错误。

原则 7：积极参与优化搜索。

在协作搜索过程中充分利用您的知识和直觉。

原则 8：关注最终设计的敏感性。
而不是最初的猜测，因为这些往往与最终设计无关。

We offer optimization services and software to our customers and clients based on our core values — unbridled innovation, uncompromising integrity, and quality in everything we do.
Modern Principles of Design Optimization
Our view of optimization is free of the constraints imposed by previous technology, because it is based on a set of new principles that allow a more natural flow of thought and effort. These eight principles are the foundation of everything we do in software development, consulting services and training at Red Cedar Technology:

Principle 1: Start with a good concept, not necessarily a good design.
Let the optimizer do the work of searching for good designs.

Principle 2: Optimize early and often.
Not just at the end of the design cycle or after all other means have been exhausted.

Principle 3: Define the design problem you need to solve.
Not the one that can be solved by a certain optimization strategy.

Principle 4: Optimize the system interactions.
Not just the components.

Principle 5: Let the optimization algorithm figure out how to search the design space.
There’s often no way to guess ahead of time which search method and tuning parameters will work best.

Principle 6: Don’t perform optimization using models of your models.
Response surface or surrogate models often increase effort and error.

Principle 7: Be an engaged participant in the optimization search.
Leverage your knowledge and intuition during a collaborative search process.

Principle 8: Care about the sensitivities of your final design.
Not those of your initial guess, which often have no bearing on the final design.
