Variables discretization has received special attention and several complementary stopping criteria have been developed and implemented to reduce the computational costs. This method, coupled with an "open" circuit simulator _SPICE-PAC_ has been used for minimizing objective functions which describe circuit performance optimization problems or component model fitting to experimental data. In the same way synaptic coefficients of a
