โฆ Synopsis
Traditionally, the performance of a distributed system or a telecommunication network is taken into account only in the last step of its design and is seen as a final improvement. Recent attempts to incorporate performance considerations in the mainstream design rely on the development of a functional model consisting of entities that must be optimally distributed over a network of physical nodes. In this paper we start from a rather informal methodology and refine it in order to convert it into a rather strict and well-defined method, taking into account the various parameters that influence the system design and emphasizing mainly a cost-effective placement of functionality in the physical nodes.

The "forward" method of an optimal gradient coil design provides a coil that has the minimal cost function value. It is shown in this study that the solution obtained by minimizing the cost function is directly dependent on the specified cost function and generally results in a deviation from the mo
