1) Description: |
| 15 |
|
|
|
| 16 |
|
|
This directory tree contains the ASCEND IV code for library models and |
| 17 |
|
|
example models. |
| 18 |
|
|
|
| 19 |
|
|
All the files in this directory hierarchy are Copyright |
| 20 |
|
|
Carnegie Mellon University and distributed under the GNU |
| 21 |
|
|
License version 2 unless OTHERWISE noted in an individual |
| 22 |
|
|
file. |
| 23 |
|
|
|
| 24 |
|
|
All 'supported' models are in this top level directory. |
| 25 |
|
|
Subdirectories are supported by their authors (if at all) and |
| 26 |
|
|
not by the ASCEND Project at large. |
| 27 |
|
|
|
| 28 |
|
|
|
| 29 |
|
|
2) Files have 5 extensions: |
| 30 |
|
|
|
| 31 |
|
|
.a4s: A Script (tcl) for loading in the ASCEND script window. |
| 32 |
|
|
.a4l: A library of reusable models. Each library contains enough |
| 33 |
|
|
test models to be self-validating and self-documenting. |
| 34 |
|
|
.a4c: Model code examples and demos. |
| 35 |
|
|
.a4v: A file of saved values from a simulation. |
| 36 |
|
|
.tcl: Auxillary TCL scripts for performing miscellaneous tasks |
| 37 |
|
|
related to modeling that the user may wish to copy and |
| 38 |
|
|
modify: for example, the user can create many permutations |
| 39 |
|
|
on the set_intervals.tcl functions which specify a |
| 40 |
|
|
time sampling schedule for the integrators. |
| 41 |
|
|
|
| 42 |
|
|
and 1 prefix |
| 43 |
|
|
|
| 44 |
|
|
z- normally of no interest to users, z files are models that |
| 45 |
|
|
contain code testing 1 or more features of the system which |
| 46 |
|
|
are not ordinarily tested in the course of routine distillation |
| 47 |
|
|
modeling. |
| 48 |
|
|
|
| 49 |
|
|
|
| 50 |
|
|
3) A note on file names: |
| 51 |
|
|
|
| 52 |
|
|
We frequently develop alternative modeling strategies as part of |
| 53 |
|
|
research. Since all our models live in one directory, several files |
| 54 |
|
|
may have names starting with part of the author's name to distinguish |
| 55 |
|
|
them from similar sets of models by another author. |
| 56 |
|
|
Groups of related models may be kept in subdirectories. |
| 57 |
|
|
|
| 58 |
|
|
|
| 59 |
|
|
4) Subdirectories: |
| 60 |
|
|
|
| 61 |
|
|
Most subdirectories only exist at Carnegie Mellon, and are generally |
| 62 |
|
|
full of experimental goop designed to frustrate the casual user. |
| 63 |
|
|
They also contain legacy goop. Old style extensions in use for |
| 64 |
|
|
these files include .s (now .a4s), .lib (now .a4l), .asc (now .a4c). |
| 65 |
|
|
.values (now .a4v), .units (now defunct). |
| 66 |
|
|
|
| 67 |
|
|
ben: This directory contains the models presented in Ben Allan's |
| 68 |
|
|
thesis. These models are somewhat less flexible than the |
| 69 |
|
|
main models directory, but are generally less consuming of |
| 70 |
|
|
computer CPU tim/memory resources. |
| 71 |
|
|
|
| 72 |
|
|
libraries: This directory contains *.lib files, containing model |
| 73 |
|
|
libraries. There is a link between H_G_thermodynamics.lib |
| 74 |
|
|
and thermo.lib. |
| 75 |
|
|
|
| 76 |
|
|
examples: This directory contains example files. Each example has a |
| 77 |
|
|
*.asc and a *.s file. The *.s is a script for running the |
| 78 |
|
|
models in the *.asc file. |
| 79 |
|
|
|
| 80 |
|
|
pending: This directory contains possible additions or changes to the |
| 81 |
|
|
libraries and examples directories. The models in these |
| 82 |
|
|
directories fall under the GNU license, but there are no |
| 83 |
|
|
guarantees on how well they will work. A generic GNU |
| 84 |
|
|
header is provided in each of the sub-directories to be |
| 85 |
|
|
added to any models placed in pendings. |
| 86 |
|
|
|
| 87 |
|
|
|
| 88 |
|
|
