Double-click the Exploration component icon 
.
The Exploration Component Editor appears.
From the Exploration Component Editor,
click the Options tab.
In the Exploration Strategy
list, click the strategy that you want to use:
-
Approximation Loop. An enhanced
optimization driver that uses an approximation for solving an optimization
problem (see About the Approximation Loop Strategy).
-
Pointer-2. An
automatic optimization engine that controls a set of standard optimization
techniques (see About the Pointer-2 Strategy).
-
Custom. A generic framework
for creating your own search procedures by configuring your own instances
of design plans and using a script to drive them (see About the Custom Strategy).
Set any general, advanced, or execution options. See
Configuring the Approximation Loop Strategy or Configuring the Pointer-2 Strategy Options. The Custom strategy does not have general, advanced,
or execution options (although your own technique instances may have
these options).
If desired, map an option to a parameter.
For more information, see Mapping Options and Attributes to Parameters.
If desired, click Disable strategy (execute
a single run) to disable the strategy when the Exploration
component executes and instead execute the subflow once.
Click OK to save your changes
and to close the Exploration Component Editor.
