NAME

simgrid_update_xml - updates simgrid XML files to lastest version

SYNOPSIS

simgrid_update_xml xml_file

DESCRIPTION

simgrid_update_xml updates the simgrid XML file passed as argument. The file is modified in place, without any kind of backup. You may want to save a copy before running the script.
In SimGrid XML files, the standard version is indicated in the version attribute of the platform tag. Current version is 3. Here is a list of major changes in each version.
Version 0: Used before SimGrid 3.3
Version 1: Introduced in SimGrid 3.3
The version attribute of platform were added to allow file versionning.
The link bandwidth changed from Mb/s to b/s; and the CPU power were changed from MFlop/s to Flop/s
Version 2: Introduced in SimGrid 3.4
Several tags were renamed:
 
  CPU -> HOST 
  NETWORK_LINK -> LINK
  ROUTE_ELEMENT ->  LINK_CTN
  PLATFORM_DESCRIPTION -> PLATFORM
    
Version 3: Introduced in SimGrid 3.5 (this is the current version)
The AS tag were introduced. Every plaform should now contain an englobing AS tag.
Routes are now symmetric by default.
Several tags were renamed (for sake of XML sanity):
 
  LINK:CTN -> LINK_CTN
  TRACE:CONNECT -> TRACE_CONNECT
