GGen is a DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph) generation library and command line client.

This tool was designed to help scheduling researchers with the simulation of their algorithms. It provides a collection of classical workflow generation methods, algorithms to annotate and analyse the generated graph.

GGen use internally the Igraph and GNU Scientific Library libraries for its data structures and random number generators.

The command line client uses DOT as its textual graph file format.

Address any remarks concerning compiling or using this tool to the bug tracker of the GGen Website or the GGen Mailing-list.

• make
• Igraph
• GNU Scientific Library
• Cgraph (graphviz)
• pandoc (for man pages only)
• pkg-config (optional: you can tell configure were to find the other libs manually)

./configure && make && make install

• autotools (libtoolize, autoconf, automake, autoheaders, aclocal)
• Igraph
• GNU Scientific Library
• Cgraph (graphviz)
• pkg-config (optional: you can tell configure were to find the other libs manually)

./autogen.sh && ./configure && make && make install

Man pages are generated automatically by make. The GGen website will eventually contain more information.

The command line client as an extensive --help. It displays help recursively on modules, commands and required arguments.

As usual the INSTALL file contains additional informations.
