How was the task formulated within which you performed optimization?

An optimization task is usually formulated by specifying a particular problem and goal, for example:

• "Reduce the device's energy consumption while maintaining performance"
• "Reduce sensor response time to 100 ms"
• "Optimize memory usage for limited resource operation"

It is important that the task is measurable and has success criteria. For example, "reduce data processing time by 20%" or "increase battery life by 30 minutes".

Such formulation helps to focus on specific metrics and evaluate the optimization result.
