Abstract
A method for setting up setup parameters for a machine to perform a time-constraint task over a fixed course. The method may include establishing a process model indicative of interrelationships between performance parameters of the machine and a plurality of setup parameters of the machine based on data records generated by a computer system. The performance parameters may be associated with constraint parameters of the machine and the setup parameters are associated with condition parameters of the fixed course. The method may also include obtaining values of the condition parameters; adjusting the process model to generate a desired set of values of the setup parameters corresponding to a desired set of values of the performance parameters of the race car based on the values of condition parameters; and presenting the desired set of values setup parameters.
