Arpad,
To be clear, AMI_Init may not deallocate parameters_out. The model is
responsible for maintaining a list of parameters_out allocations, The model
may deallocate any previously parameters_out allocated blocks. AMI_GetWave
may choose to allocate a new parameters_out block, or use an older one that
was not de-allocated. AMI_Close is responsible for deallocating any
paramerts_out blocks that had not been previously allocated. The EDA tool
may not assume that the parameters_out data from a previous call to AMI_Init
or AMI_GetWave is valid after a new call to AMI_GetWave.

arpad:
the model is free to allocate and deallocate parameters_out at each call ,
whether it is to init and whether it is to getwave call. The model can also
allocate parameters_out just once. It is totally at the model's discretion.
