Stallmann, Brglez, Ghosh: Data Evaluation Scripts

These scripts are in two categories. The first category takes raw data from directories containing the experimental subjects and summarizes the data. The raw data is in files created by the execution scripts, files named TR?? that record actual crossing numbers for each subject treated by treatment ?? or files named TIMING_TR?? that record time and number of iterations for the treatment in question. Each of these scripts has a single argument, which is a string called class-name denoting the set of subdirectories from which to gather data. In general this string will contain globbing information, such as GB_*_rnd0_0?, and needs to be put in quotes. The second type of script generates tabular data appropriate for use in a spreadsheet program. We used DeltaGraph, but others would work equally well.

Most of these scripts require two treatments as input -- these are given on the command line in the form tr??, or dot in the special case of the dot treatment. Most also allow an additional argument, whose presence causes the minimum rather than the average to be used when looking at crossing number statistics for a class. The optional argument also causes either _scr or _min, as appropriate, to be added as a suffix to the output file name. When random classes are involved, the corresponding iso classes are used when the optional argument is present. The other scripts all require that sbg_summaries has already been executed for the relevant classes.
