Transformation functions for Graph optimization tools #11

Open slizzered opened 8 years ago

slizzered commented 8 years ago

METIS needs communication represented as fully-connected graph with weighted edges. It would be good to give an interface for transforming an Attribute-Graph (or a filtered representation thereof) into the correct representation

the function mergeStarTopology does a first step by giving ways to reduce the interconnect graph. A next step would be to have a generic interface for transforming the attributes into a weighted metric

Currently:
Communication represented as graph in InterconnectGraph within the HW description.

Now, only a function that converts the attributes into a useful edge-weighting is required. The implementation of the function will depend on the attributes included in the weighting
