Module contents

class pacman.model.graphs.AbstractEdge[source]

Bases: object

A directed edge in a graph between two vertices.

label

The label of the edge.

Return type:str
post_vertex

The vertex at the end of the edge.

Return type:AbstractVertex
pre_vertex

The vertex at the start of the edge.

Return type:AbstractVertex
class pacman.model.graphs.AbstractEdgePartition(identifier, allowed_edge_types)[source]

Bases: object

A collection of edges which start at a single vertex which have the same semantics and so can share a single key or block of SDRAM (depending on edge type).

Parameters:
  • identifier (str) – The identifier of the partition
  • allowed_edge_types (type or tuple(type, ..)) – The types of edges allowed
  • label (str) – An optional label of the partition
add_edge(edge)[source]

Add an edge to the edge partition.

Parameters:edge (AbstractEdge) – the edge to add
Raises:PacmanInvalidParameterException – If the edge does not belong in this edge partition
edges

The edges in this edge partition.

Note

The order in which the edges are added is preserved for when they are requested later. If not, please talk to the software team.

Return type:iterable(AbstractEdge)
identifier

The identifier of this edge partition.

Return type:str
n_edges

The number of edges in the edge partition.

Return type:int
pre_vertices

The vertices associated with this partition.

Note

Most edge partitions will be AbstractSingleSourcePartition and therefore provide the pre_vertex method.

Return type:iterable(AbstractVertex)
class pacman.model.graphs.AbstractMultiplePartition(pre_vertices, identifier, allowed_edge_types)[source]

Bases: pacman.model.graphs.abstract_edge_partition.AbstractEdgePartition

An edge partition that has multiple source vertices.

add_edge(edge)[source]

Add an edge to the edge partition.

Parameters:edge (AbstractEdge) – the edge to add
Raises:PacmanInvalidParameterException – If the edge does not belong in this edge partition
pre_vertices

The vertices associated with this partition.

Note

Most edge partitions will be AbstractSingleSourcePartition and therefore provide the pre_vertex method.

Return type:iterable(AbstractVertex)
class pacman.model.graphs.AbstractSingleSourcePartition(pre_vertex, identifier, allowed_edge_types)[source]

Bases: pacman.model.graphs.abstract_edge_partition.AbstractEdgePartition

An edge partition that has a single source vertex.

add_edge(edge)[source]

Add an edge to the edge partition.

Parameters:edge (AbstractEdge) – the edge to add
Raises:PacmanInvalidParameterException – If the edge does not belong in this edge partition
pre_vertex

The vertex at which all edges in this outgoing edge partition start.

Return type:AbstractVertex
pre_vertices

The vertices associated with this partition.

Note

Most edge partitions will be AbstractSingleSourcePartition and therefore provide the pre_vertex method.

Return type:iterable(AbstractVertex)
class pacman.model.graphs.AbstractSupportsSDRAMEdges[source]

Bases: object

Marks a machine vertex that can have SDRAM edges attached to it.

sdram_requirement(sdram_machine_edge)[source]

Asks a machine vertex for the SDRAM requirement it needs.

Parameters:sdram_machine_edge (SDRAMMachineEdge) – The SDRAM edge in question
Returns:The size in bytes this vertex needs for the SDRAM edge.
Return type:int (most likely a multiple of 4)
class pacman.model.graphs.AbstractVertex(label=None)[source]

Bases: object

A vertex in a graph.

Parameters:label (str) – The optional name of the vertex
addedToGraph()[source]

Records that the vertex has been added to a graph.

Raises:PacmanConfigurationException – If there is an attempt to add the same vertex more than once
get_fixed_location()[source]

The x, y and possibly p the vertex must be placed on.

Typically None! Does not have the value of a normal placements.

Used instead of ChipAndCoreConstraint.

Return type:None or ChipAndCore
label

The current label to the vertex.

This label could change when the vertex is added to the graph.

Return type:str
set_fixed_location(x, y, p=None)[source]

Set the location where the vertex must be placed.

Note

If called, must be called prior to the placement algorithms.

Parameters:
  • x (int) – X coordinate of fixed location
  • y (int) – Y coordinate of fixed location
  • p (int) – Processor ID of fixed location
Raises:

PacmanConfigurationException – If a fixed location has already been set to a different location.

set_label(label)[source]

Changes the label for a vertex not yet added to a graph.

Parameters:label (str) – new value for the label
Raises:PacmanConfigurationException – If there is an attempt to change the label once the vertex has been added to a graph
class pacman.model.graphs.AbstractVirtual[source]

Bases: object

A vertex which exists outside of the machine, allowing a graph to formally participate in I/O.

Note

Everything that is an instance of AbstractVirtual is also an instance of AbstractVertex.

board_address

The IP address of the board to which the device is connected, or None for the boot board, or when using linked chip coordinates.

Return type:str or None

Get link data from the machine.

Parameters:machine (Machine) – The machine to get the data from
Return type:AbstractLinkData
incoming

Whether this device sends traffic into SpiNNaker.

Return type:bool
linked_chip_coordinates

The coordinates of the chip to which the device is connected, or None for the boot board, or when using a board address.

Return type:tuple(int, int) or None
outgoing

Whether this device receives traffic from SpiNNaker.

Return type:bool
outgoing_keys_and_masks()[source]

Get the keys sent by the device or None if there aren’t any explicitly defined.

Return type:list(BaseKeyAndMask) or None
