ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for resolving artificial algebraic loops in model executions include providing a model of an executable process having a plurality of functions. An analysis step identifies whether the process includes at least one potential artificial algebraic loop. If at least one potential artificial algebraic loop exists in the process, an artificial algebraic loop solution manipulates the order or manner by which the functions are executed to eliminate or otherwise resolve the artificial algebraic loop.
