/** Class allowing to drive the value of a parameter.
* <p>
* This class is typically used as a bridge between an estimation
* algorithm (typically orbit determination or optimizer) and an
* internal parameter in a physical model that needs to be tuned,
* or a bridge between a finite differences algorithm and an
* internal parameter in a physical model that needs to be slightly
* offset. The physical model will expose to the algorithm a
* set of instances of this class so the algorithm can call the
* {@link #setValue(double)} method to update the
* parameter value. Each time the value is set, the physical model
* will be notified as it will register a {@link ParameterObserver
* ParameterObserver} for this purpose.
* </p>
* <p>
* This design has two major goals. First, it allows an external
* algorithm to drive internal parameters almost anonymously, as it only
* needs to get a list of instances of this class, without knowing
* what they really drive. Second, it allows the physical model to
* not expose directly setters methods for its parameters. In order
* to be able to modify the parameter value, the algorithm
* <em>must</em> retrieve a parameter driver.
* </p>
