should check rewards work with aggregation


19:25:41, Wednesday, 01 Sep 99

getopt works, hashing on/off works, choice of solver works

computing timing - should probaby use unix time command, no? More
accurate reflection when there are lots of jobs present

What should be the form of output from the reward language tool?
BCG generates db.soln
# Solution vector:
P[1]:=0.380952380952381:
...

Say the model is called db, say the attachment is called "util". Then
how about a file called db-util.rew containing

# Attachment util
util := 0
+P[4]*x
+P[7]*y
+P[8]*z
;

To compile for NJ-SML

UPDATED: not in src, just type make

OLD:
o cd src
o start with nj-sml -97
o CM.make();
o SMLofNJ.exportFn("njpwb",njpwb.main);
o cd ..
o make nj

To test out:

o make bcg



In NJ branch:

o making using mosmlc is disabled
o why won't make bcg work with just | pwb | ? Weird!
o not automated to build for solaris under nj yet

CHANGES TO USERS:

o data file must be := instead of =!!!
o top can now be used as well as infty
o can use set notation in .pepa file!
o can also use identifiers - see test2.pepa for a fully featured example



14:19:59, Friday, 02 Jul 99

Any changes in the parser:

o uses mosmllex, mosmlyac

about to work on implementing expressions in rates. I should 

FIX:

o it only generates the maple code if Files.job is set, and this is
  only set by calling Files.readFile - we don't need to do this, so
  change this interface

o the warnings about active-active when it should be looking for infty
  but it doesn't

CVS tags:

o tag: pwb-260799
  date: 13:47:45, Monday, 26 Jul 99
  version: 0.72 (unchanged from stg)

  info: freshly imported sources. This version seems to have a bug,
  probably in the minimisation code, which generates negative numbers
  in the output. It's restructured by me to have a lex/yacc grammar,
  and accepts set and expressions identifiers.

o tag: pwb-260799-2
  date: 18:22:15, Monday, 26 Jul 99
  version: 0.73a

  info: added pwbsolve etc to repository - all compiles straight off
  now.

o tag: pwb-280799
  date: 16:47:16, Wednesday, 28 Jul 99
  version: 0.73a

  info: some experimental stuff with expressions, but hopefully simple 
  models won't test it too much. Infrastructure changed so that maple
  files are now easily generated, and from a clean build, pwbsolve
  works again. PSF bug not attacked yet.
