5.1.3 Development Of Array Version

Because we have already built a series of modules for each of the classes (age-groups) of trees, building an array version is made simple. We also have a baseline against which to compare this new set of modules and, ultimately, the model.

The SAPLINGS, SMALL TREES and MEDIUM TREES modules each contain similar structures with a pipeline delay, from which losses occur. Our start point for building an array module is to focus on SAPLINGS with the aim of building an equivalent array module.
