Patch implementation setup

Table of Contents

• Implementation parameters
  • Example: Changing model geometry
  • Example: Changing model initialization strategy

The patch tag describes patch framework-specific setup. Nested tags include patch.parameter for parameters.

<patch>
    <patch.parameter id="[ID]" value="[VALUE]" scale="[SCALE]" />
    ...
</patch>

Implementation parameters

The patch.parameter tag defines patch implementation parameters. Unless modified, default values are used for all parameters. Defaults are listed in parameter.patch.xml.

• Either or both value and scale attributes can be applied, with value applied first
• Only numeric parameters can be modified using scale

ATTRIBUTE	DESCRIPTION
id	Parameter name
value	New parameter value
scale	Scaling factor applied to parameter value

Example: Changing model geometry

Specifies a hexagonal model geometry.

<patch.parameter id="GEOMETRY" value="hex" />

Example: Changing model initialization strategy

Specifies the random initialization strategy.

<patch.parameter id="INITIALIZATION" value="random" />
