Abstract

The optimal usage of CPU resource for the optimization of resid attribute probability density functions was examined. Alternative strategies involving the use of reaction simulation and data, NMR and increased sample size were examined. The present results suggest optimization with NMR data, large molecular sample sizes, and the absence of reaction simulation as the most efficient strategy.
