Asymptotic gain model

Asymptotic gain is a way of measuring how well a system will do over time. It helps us decide which systems we should use and which ones we should avoid. Imagine a race with a bunch of people. You could figure out which person is going to win the race by looking at how fast they have gone so far, but with Asymptotic Gain, you can also see how they will do over time. Asymptotic Gain measures how fast each person or system will do over time and will eventually do at the "asymptote" – the point where they can't possibly do better than they are. This way, you can know which systems will do better in the end and make better decisions.
