Evaluating with Average

This method  calculates the average from the possible 25 real runtimes (RRT) of a task.

If all RRTs are used, extreme deviations with real runtimes are not emphasized heavily. As a result, the curve will level out.

If, however, the number of calculated runs is reduced, the estimated runtimes will follow any possibly existing tendency in runtime behavior more quickly.

To preserve a distance between estimated runtime and real runtime, it is possible to specify a correction value in percent This value is added to the estimated runtimes. This ensures that the estimated runtime (ERT) follows the real runtime of a task at the specified distance.

In order to avoid the evaluation of extreme deviations, a maximum deviation level in percent can be set. If the real runtime exceeds this limit, it will not be taken into account in the calculation of the ERT. Additionally, the number of runs to be used can also be specified here.
