NAME

       amk_ccc, amk_fft2, amk_hy, amk_m2, amk_p2 - create target architectures

SYNOPSIS

       amk_ccc [options] dim [tfile]

       amk_fft2 [options] dim [tfile]

       amk_hy [options] dim [tfile]

       amk_m2 [options] dimX [dimY] [tfile]

       amk_p2 [options] [wght0] [wght1] [tfile]

DESCRIPTION

       The amk_* programs create target architecture files for some common, regular topologies.

       amk_ccc  creates  a  decomposition-defined cube-connected-cycle topology of dimension dim.
       The decomposition is performed first by bisection along the dimensions of  the  hypercube,
       then along the remaining cycle graphs.

       amk_fft2 creates a decomposition-defined fast-Fourier-transform topology of dimension dim.
       The decomposition is performed by recursive  bisection  of  the  vertices,  by  descending
       dimension (that is, bit number in the labeling of the vertices).

       amk_hy   creates   a  decomposition-defined  hypercube  topology  of  dimension  dim.  The
       decomposition is performed by recursive bisection of the vertices, by descending dimension
       (that  is, bit number in the labeling of the vertices). Save for experimentation purposes,
       this program is deprecated, as the algorithmically-defined 'hcub' target architecture is a
       more convenient and efficient way to represent hypercube architectures.

       amk_m2  creates  a  decomposition-defined  2D regular grid topology of dimensions dimX and
       dimY. The decomposition is performed by recursive splitting along the  dimensions,  either
       by  cutting  the longest one, or by one-way dissection, depending on the '-m' option flag.
       Save for experimentation purposes, this program is  deprecated,  as  the  algorithmically-
       defined 'mesh2D' and 'mesh3D' target architectures are a more convenient and efficient way
       to represent 2D and 3D grid architectures.

       amk_p2 creates a weighted path graph topology comprising  only  two  vertices  of  weights
       wght0  and  wght1. This is just a helper program, which builds a 'wcmplt' algorithmically-
       defined complete graph with two vertices. It may be used to compute weighted bisections of
       a graph.

       When  the  proper  libraries  have  been  included at compile time, the amk_* programs can
       directly handle compressed files, both as  input  and  output.  A  stream  is  treated  as
       compressed  whenever  its  name  is postfixed with a compressed file extension, such as in
       'brol.tgt.bz2' or '-.gz'. The compression formats which can be  supported  are  the  bzip2
       format ('.bz2'), the gzip format ('.gz'), and the lzma format ('.lzma', on input only).

OPTIONS

       -mmeth For  amk_m2  only.  Perform  either  recursive  dissection  or  one-way dissection,
              according to the given method flag:

              n      perform nested dissection (default).

              o      perform one-way dissection (cut across Y, then X).

       -h     Display some help.

       -V     Display program version and copyright.

EXAMPLE

       Create a cube-connected-cycle target architecture of dimension 4,  and  save  it  to  file
       'ccc4.tgt'.

           $ amk_ccc 4 ccc4.tgt

       Run  gmap  to  compute a bisection, into two parts of respective weights 3 and 5, of graph
       'brol.grf' and save the resulting mapping to file 'brol.map'. The dash '-'  standard  file
       name  is used so that the target architecture description is read from the standard input,
       through the pipe.

           $ amk_p2 3 5 | gmap brol.grf - brol.map
