# NetLab
|
|
43
|
+
|
|
44
|
+
NetLab builds network scenarios with
|
|
45
|
+
[NetLab-TopoGen](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab-TopoGen), runs them with
|
|
46
|
+
[NetGraph](https://github.com/networmix/NetGraph), and compares the results. It
|
|
47
|
+
reports how much traffic survives failures, how path costs change, and how much
|
|
48
|
+
the modeled equipment costs and consumes.
|
|
49
|
+
|
|
50
|
+
You can run several configurations and random seeds in one batch. NetLab also
|
|
51
|
+
supports parameter searches and experiments proposed by a language model.
|
|
52
|
+
|
|
53
|
+
## Install
|
|
54
|
+
|
|
55
|
+
Use Python 3.11 or later in a virtual environment of its own. To install the command:
|
|
56
|
+
|
|
57
|
+
```bash
|
|
58
|
+
python -m pip install netlab
|
|
59
|
+
```
|
|
60
|
+
|
|
61
|
+
The command also installs NetGraph (`ngraph`), NetLab-TopoGen
|
|
62
|
+
(`netlab-topogen`) and the other dependencies from PyPI;
|
|
63
|
+
[pyproject.toml](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/pyproject.toml) lists their supported versions.
|
|
64
|
+
|
|
65
|
+
ipSpace's `networklab` package installs a command of the same name, so use separate environments for the two tools.
|
|
66
|
+
|
|
67
|
+
To use the included examples, clone the repository with Git and create its environment:
|
|
68
|
+
|
|
69
|
+
```bash
|
|
70
|
+
git clone https://github.com/networmix/NetLab
|
|
71
|
+
cd NetLab
|
|
72
|
+
make dev
|
|
73
|
+
source venv/bin/activate
|
|
74
|
+
```
|
|
75
|
+
|
|
76
|
+
Run the commands below from the repository root.
|
|
77
|
+
|
|
78
|
+
## Run an example
|
|
79
|
+
|
|
80
|
+
This example uses saved geographic routes, so no Census download is needed. It
|
|
81
|
+
still needs network access: the build draws a site map for each scenario from
|
|
82
|
+
downloaded map tiles. To build offline, set `visualization.site_graph.export:
|
|
83
|
+
false` in a copy of the configuration.
|
|
84
|
+
|
|
85
|
+
```bash
|
|
86
|
+
netlab run topogen_configs_small/small_baseline.yml --seeds 11 12 \
|
|
87
|
+
--graphs-dir tests/data/scenarios/small_baseline/small_baseline \
|
|
88
|
+
--scenarios-dir scenarios
|
|
89
|
+
netlab metrics scenarios/
|
|
90
|
+
```
|
|
91
|
+
|
|
92
|
+
The first command builds a network for each seed and runs its NetGraph workflow.
|
|
93
|
+
A **seed** is the scenario's random seed. It drives NetLab-TopoGen's random traffic
|
|
94
|
+
choices and NetGraph's failure sampling, so the same seed repeats the same
|
|
95
|
+
experiment. The second command calculates metrics and renders comparison figures.
|
|
96
|
+
|
|
97
|
+
| Location | Contents |
|
|
98
|
+
| --- | --- |
|
|
99
|
+
| `scenarios/<config>/<config>__seed<N>/` | Scenario YAML, NetGraph results and NetLab's run record |
|
|
100
|
+
| `scenarios/<config>/<config>_integrated_graph.json` | Geography generated when `--graphs-dir` is omitted |
|
|
101
|
+
| `scenarios/provenance.json` | Input hashes, settings, package versions and outcomes of the last batch |
|
|
102
|
+
| `scenarios_metrics/project.csv` | One summary row per configuration |
|
|
103
|
+
| `scenarios_metrics/BAC.png` | How often each delivered bandwidth was met or exceeded |
|
|
104
|
+
| `scenarios_metrics/<config>/seed<N>/` | Metrics for one seed |
|
|
105
|
+
|
|
106
|
+
To build without simulating, use `netlab build` with the same input arguments.
|
|
107
|
+
To generate geography yourself, omit `--graphs-dir` and first download the
|
|
108
|
+
[data required by NetLab-TopoGen](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab-TopoGen#readme).
|
|
109
|
+
The `data/` and `lib/` paths are relative to your working directory. From the
|
|
110
|
+
repository root, `lib/workflows.yml` replaces NetLab-TopoGen's `design_analysis_brief`
|
|
111
|
+
workflow with NetLab's version, and `lib/failure_policies.yml` adds `mc_hard`.
|
|
112
|
+
|
|
113
|
+
Saved geography must be a corridor `MultiGraph`: a graph that can keep several
|
|
114
|
+
routes between the same metro pair. Each file is named
|
|
115
|
+
`<config>_integrated_graph.json`. The `topogen_configs/` directory contains larger
|
|
116
|
+
designs; `topogen_configs_small/` contains smaller versions for experimentation.
|
|
117
|
+
|
|
118
|
+
## Control a batch
|
|
119
|
+
|
|
120
|
+
| Option | Effect |
|
|
121
|
+
| --- | --- |
|
|
122
|
+
| `--build-jobs`, `--run-jobs` | Number of build and simulation tasks allowed to run at once |
|
|
123
|
+
| `--build-timeout` | Time limit for each geography or scenario build task |
|
|
124
|
+
| `--run-timeout` | Time limit for each simulation; defaults to 600 seconds |
|
|
125
|
+
| `--force-run` | Run simulations again even when cached results match |
|
|
126
|
+
| `--force` | Rerun simulations and regenerate geography, unless `--graphs-dir` supplies it |
|
|
127
|
+
|
|
128
|
+
Time limits start when a task starts running. Scenario assembly runs every time.
|
|
129
|
+
NetLab reuses saved work only when a hash of its inputs still matches; a hash
|
|
130
|
+
identifies file contents, so any change to the inputs invalidates the cache.
|
|
131
|
+
Generated geography is reused while the configuration, data files and package
|
|
132
|
+
versions are unchanged. A simulation result is reused while the scenario,
|
|
133
|
+
package versions, the saved result file and its run record are unchanged.
|
|
134
|
+
Failed tasks make the command return a failure status; independent tasks continue.
|
|
135
|
+
Each run's outcome and the wall time of each workflow step are saved in a run
|
|
136
|
+
record, `<name>.results.run.json`, beside the results; a reused result keeps the
|
|
137
|
+
times of the run that produced it.
|
|
138
|
+
|
|
139
|
+
## Read and compare metrics
|
|
140
|
+
|
|
141
|
+
```bash
|
|
142
|
+
netlab metrics scenarios/ --no-plots
|
|
143
|
+
netlab metrics scenarios/ --only small_baseline
|
|
144
|
+
netlab metrics scenarios/ --summary
|
|
145
|
+
```
|
|
146
|
+
|
|
147
|
+
`--no-plots` calculates tables without figures. `--only` takes a comma-separated
|
|
148
|
+
list of configuration names, such as `small_baseline,small_clos`.
|
|
149
|
+
`--summary` reads the saved tables and renders figures.
|
|
150
|
+
A calculation replaces the complete report directory, even with `--only`.
|
|
151
|
+
If calculation fails, the existing report is kept.
|
|
152
|
+
|
|
153
|
+
The workflow must include these step names:
|
|
154
|
+
|
|
155
|
+
| Step name | NetGraph analysis |
|
|
156
|
+
| --- | --- |
|
|
157
|
+
| `msd_baseline` | `MaximumSupportedDemand`, which searches for a traffic multiplier |
|
|
158
|
+
| `tm_placement` | `TrafficMatrixPlacement` with `alpha_from_step: msd_baseline`, and `outputs: {cost_distribution: true}` for latency |
|
|
159
|
+
| `network_statistics` | `NetworkStats`, which counts network objects |
|
|
160
|
+
|
|
161
|
+
`--enable-maxflow` also needs a `node_to_node_capacity_matrix` step for pairwise
|
|
162
|
+
capacity analysis. Each result needs the run record NetLab writes beside it.
|
|
163
|
+
See [metrics.md](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/metrics.md) for definitions, required fields, worked examples
|
|
164
|
+
and output files. Failure statistics describe the configured
|
|
165
|
+
experiment; they are not measurements of network uptime.
|
|
166
|
+
|
|
167
|
+
To compare two configurations with matching seeds:
|
|
168
|
+
|
|
169
|
+
```bash
|
|
170
|
+
netlab test scenarios/ small_baseline small_clos
|
|
171
|
+
```
|
|
172
|
+
|
|
173
|
+
Both configurations must have been analyzed. The statistical test needs at least
|
|
174
|
+
three matching finite seed results; the two-seed quick start is for running the
|
|
175
|
+
pipeline, not statistical inference.
|
|
176
|
+
|
|
177
|
+
## Python API
|
|
178
|
+
|
|
179
|
+
Save this as a script and point it to a NetGraph scenario:
|
|
180
|
+
|
|
181
|
+
```python
|
|
182
|
+
from pathlib import Path
|
|
183
|
+
from netlab.simulation import run_simulation
|
|
184
|
+
|
|
185
|
+
if __name__ == "__main__":
|
|
186
|
+
outcome = run_simulation(Path("scenario.yml"), timeout=60)
|
|
187
|
+
print(outcome.status, outcome.error)
|
|
188
|
+
```
|
|
189
|
+
|
|
190
|
+
`run_simulation` runs in a local worker process. A successful run saves
|
|
191
|
+
`scenario.results.json` next to the scenario; every run records its status and
|
|
192
|
+
the wall time of each step it ran in `scenario.results.run.json`. The `__main__`
|
|
193
|
+
guard keeps a spawned worker from running the script again. Use `simulate(yaml_text)` to run in the calling
|
|
194
|
+
process, or `inspect_scenario(yaml_text)` to validate and count network objects.
|
|
195
|
+
See [architecture and batch APIs](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/dev/ARCHITECTURE.md).
|
|
196
|
+
|
|
197
|
+
Metric functions read a saved result dictionary:
|
|
198
|
+
|
|
199
|
+
```python
|
|
200
|
+
import json
|
|
201
|
+
from netlab.metrics.bac import compute_bac
|
|
202
|
+
from netlab.metrics.latency import compute_latency_stretch
|
|
203
|
+
from netlab.metrics.msd import compute_alpha_star
|
|
204
|
+
|
|
205
|
+
with open("scenario.results.json") as f:
|
|
206
|
+
results = json.load(f)
|
|
207
|
+
|
|
208
|
+
print(compute_alpha_star(results).alpha_star)
|
|
209
|
+
print(compute_bac(results, step_name="tm_placement").auc_normalized)
|
|
210
|
+
print(compute_latency_stretch(results).failures.get("p99"))
|
|
211
|
+
```
|
|
212
|
+
|
|
213
|
+
They return the per-seed values described in [metrics.md](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/metrics.md).
|
|
214
|
+
`netlab metrics` also checks the result arithmetic before it computes them.
|
|
215
|
+
|
|
216
|
+
## Automated experiments
|
|
217
|
+
|
|
218
|
+
An autoresearch project gives a language model a task description
|
|
219
|
+
(`program.md`), the parameters it may change (`hypothesis_template.yml`) and the
|
|
220
|
+
metric to optimize (`objective.yml`). `init` copies a base scenario that has a
|
|
221
|
+
`MaximumSupportedDemand` step and at least one `${{name}}` placeholder. Each
|
|
222
|
+
placeholder becomes a parameter, and the objective maximizes
|
|
223
|
+
`steps.msd_baseline.result.alpha_feasible.value`, the multiplier of the step named
|
|
224
|
+
`msd_baseline`. A candidate whose search finds no feasible multiplier fails; it
|
|
225
|
+
never scores zero. Review the generated files before a run:
|
|
226
|
+
|
|
227
|
+
```bash
|
|
228
|
+
netlab autoresearch init --base-scenario scenario.yml --output project/
|
|
229
|
+
netlab autoresearch run project/ --backend mock --max-experiments 1
|
|
230
|
+
```
|
|
231
|
+
|
|
232
|
+
The `mock` backend is for testing the workflow. To use an external model, select
|
|
233
|
+
`claude-cli`, `codex-cli` or `openai` and configure that backend's credentials.
|
|
234
|
+
CLI backends need their executable installed and signed in.
|
|
235
|
+
`HypothesisManager` can also turn a free-text hypothesis into a scenario, run it
|
|
236
|
+
and request an interpretation. Those cycle files are saved under `<project>/cycles/`.
|
|
237
|
+
|
|
238
|
+
Run one writer per project; nothing locks the files. A project directory is tied
|
|
239
|
+
to its input files, seed and installed package versions. A sweep output directory
|
|
240
|
+
is tied to its sweep type, seed, iteration count and package versions. If any of
|
|
241
|
+
them changes, NetLab refuses to continue there; start a new directory.
|
|
242
|
+
Rerunning a sweep in its directory skips successful entries and retries failed
|
|
243
|
+
ones. Higher scores rank better; candidates that fail the configured constraints
|
|
244
|
+
cannot become best.
|
|
245
|
+
|
|
246
|
+
For data-center-to-backbone designs, see the
|
|
247
|
+
[research project](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/research_projects/dc-bb-autoresearch/program.md) and
|
|
248
|
+
[included interconnect experiments](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/experiments/dc-bb-interconnect/README.md).
|
|
249
|
+
|
|
250
|
+
## Development
|
|
251
|
+
|
|
252
|
+
```bash
|
|
253
|
+
make check-ci
|
|
254
|
+
```
|
|
255
|
+
|
|
256
|
+
This checks formatting, lint, types and tests, including NetLab-TopoGen → NetGraph →
|
|
257
|
+
metrics runs using saved geography. See [fixture regeneration](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/tests/data/README.md)
|
|
258
|
+
and [metric verification](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/dev/METRICS_VERIFICATION.md).
|
|
259
|
+
|
|
260
|
+
In Superset, `bash .superset/workspace.sh setup` creates a `venv`, installs the
|
|
261
|
+
development dependencies and copies missing untracked `.env` files from the root
|
|
262
|
+
checkout. The Run button executes `make check-ci`.
|
|
263
|
+
|
|
264
|
+
To test local checkouts of all three dependencies:
|
|
265
|
+
|
|
266
|
+
```bash
|
|
267
|
+
bash dev/check_ngraph_integration.sh /path/to/NetGraph /path/to/NetGraph-Core /path/to/NetLab-TopoGen
|
|
268
|
+
```
|
|
269
|
+
|
|
270
|
+
Replace the paths with your checkouts. The script builds Core and runs checks in
|
|
271
|
+
a temporary environment. It saves source revisions, dependency versions and
|
|
272
|
+
results under `build/ngraph-integration/`.
|

# NetLab
|
|
2
|
+
|
|
3
|
+
NetLab builds network scenarios with
|
|
4
|
+
[NetLab-TopoGen](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab-TopoGen), runs them with
|
|
5
|
+
[NetGraph](https://github.com/networmix/NetGraph), and compares the results. It
|
|
6
|
+
reports how much traffic survives failures, how path costs change, and how much
|
|
7
|
+
the modeled equipment costs and consumes.
|
|
8
|
+
|
|
9
|
+
You can run several configurations and random seeds in one batch. NetLab also
|
|
10
|
+
supports parameter searches and experiments proposed by a language model.
|
|
11
|
+
|
|
12
|
+
## Install
|
|
13
|
+
|
|
14
|
+
Use Python 3.11 or later in a virtual environment of its own. To install the command:
|
|
15
|
+
|
|
16
|
+
```bash
|
|
17
|
+
python -m pip install netlab
|
|
18
|
+
```
|
|
19
|
+
|
|
20
|
+
The command also installs NetGraph (`ngraph`), NetLab-TopoGen
|
|
21
|
+
(`netlab-topogen`) and the other dependencies from PyPI;
|
|
22
|
+
[pyproject.toml](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/pyproject.toml) lists their supported versions.
|
|
23
|
+
|
|
24
|
+
ipSpace's `networklab` package installs a command of the same name, so use separate environments for the two tools.
|
|
25
|
+
|
|
26
|
+
To use the included examples, clone the repository with Git and create its environment:
|
|
27
|
+
|
|
28
|
+
```bash
|
|
29
|
+
git clone https://github.com/networmix/NetLab
|
|
30
|
+
cd NetLab
|
|
31
|
+
make dev
|
|
32
|
+
source venv/bin/activate
|
|
33
|
+
```
|
|
34
|
+
|
|
35
|
+
Run the commands below from the repository root.
|
|
36
|
+
|
|
37
|
+
## Run an example
|
|
38
|
+
|
|
39
|
+
This example uses saved geographic routes, so no Census download is needed. It
|
|
40
|
+
still needs network access: the build draws a site map for each scenario from
|
|
41
|
+
downloaded map tiles. To build offline, set `visualization.site_graph.export:
|
|
42
|
+
false` in a copy of the configuration.
|
|
43
|
+
|
|
44
|
+
```bash
|
|
45
|
+
netlab run topogen_configs_small/small_baseline.yml --seeds 11 12 \
|
|
46
|
+
--graphs-dir tests/data/scenarios/small_baseline/small_baseline \
|
|
47
|
+
--scenarios-dir scenarios
|
|
48
|
+
netlab metrics scenarios/
|
|
49
|
+
```
|
|
50
|
+
|
|
51
|
+
The first command builds a network for each seed and runs its NetGraph workflow.
|
|
52
|
+
A **seed** is the scenario's random seed. It drives NetLab-TopoGen's random traffic
|
|
53
|
+
choices and NetGraph's failure sampling, so the same seed repeats the same
|
|
54
|
+
experiment. The second command calculates metrics and renders comparison figures.
|
|
55
|
+
|
|
56
|
+
| Location | Contents |
|
|
57
|
+
| --- | --- |
|
|
58
|
+
| `scenarios/<config>/<config>__seed<N>/` | Scenario YAML, NetGraph results and NetLab's run record |
|
|
59
|
+
| `scenarios/<config>/<config>_integrated_graph.json` | Geography generated when `--graphs-dir` is omitted |
|
|
60
|
+
| `scenarios/provenance.json` | Input hashes, settings, package versions and outcomes of the last batch |
|
|
61
|
+
| `scenarios_metrics/project.csv` | One summary row per configuration |
|
|
62
|
+
| `scenarios_metrics/BAC.png` | How often each delivered bandwidth was met or exceeded |
|
|
63
|
+
| `scenarios_metrics/<config>/seed<N>/` | Metrics for one seed |
|
|
64
|
+
|
|
65
|
+
To build without simulating, use `netlab build` with the same input arguments.
|
|
66
|
+
To generate geography yourself, omit `--graphs-dir` and first download the
|
|
67
|
+
[data required by NetLab-TopoGen](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab-TopoGen#readme).
|
|
68
|
+
The `data/` and `lib/` paths are relative to your working directory. From the
|
|
69
|
+
repository root, `lib/workflows.yml` replaces NetLab-TopoGen's `design_analysis_brief`
|
|
70
|
+
workflow with NetLab's version, and `lib/failure_policies.yml` adds `mc_hard`.
|
|
71
|
+
|
|
72
|
+
Saved geography must be a corridor `MultiGraph`: a graph that can keep several
|
|
73
|
+
routes between the same metro pair. Each file is named
|
|
74
|
+
`<config>_integrated_graph.json`. The `topogen_configs/` directory contains larger
|
|
75
|
+
designs; `topogen_configs_small/` contains smaller versions for experimentation.
|
|
76
|
+
|
|
77
|
+
## Control a batch
|
|
78
|
+
|
|
79
|
+
| Option | Effect |
|
|
80
|
+
| --- | --- |
|
|
81
|
+
| `--build-jobs`, `--run-jobs` | Number of build and simulation tasks allowed to run at once |
|
|
82
|
+
| `--build-timeout` | Time limit for each geography or scenario build task |
|
|
83
|
+
| `--run-timeout` | Time limit for each simulation; defaults to 600 seconds |
|
|
84
|
+
| `--force-run` | Run simulations again even when cached results match |
|
|
85
|
+
| `--force` | Rerun simulations and regenerate geography, unless `--graphs-dir` supplies it |
|
|
86
|
+
|
|
87
|
+
Time limits start when a task starts running. Scenario assembly runs every time.
|
|
88
|
+
NetLab reuses saved work only when a hash of its inputs still matches; a hash
|
|
89
|
+
identifies file contents, so any change to the inputs invalidates the cache.
|
|
90
|
+
Generated geography is reused while the configuration, data files and package
|
|
91
|
+
versions are unchanged. A simulation result is reused while the scenario,
|
|
92
|
+
package versions, the saved result file and its run record are unchanged.
|
|
93
|
+
Failed tasks make the command return a failure status; independent tasks continue.
|
|
94
|
+
Each run's outcome and the wall time of each workflow step are saved in a run
|
|
95
|
+
record, `<name>.results.run.json`, beside the results; a reused result keeps the
|
|
96
|
+
times of the run that produced it.
|
|
97
|
+
|
|
98
|
+
## Read and compare metrics
|
|
99
|
+
|
|
100
|
+
```bash
|
|
101
|
+
netlab metrics scenarios/ --no-plots
|
|
102
|
+
netlab metrics scenarios/ --only small_baseline
|
|
103
|
+
netlab metrics scenarios/ --summary
|
|
104
|
+
```
|
|
105
|
+
|
|
106
|
+
`--no-plots` calculates tables without figures. `--only` takes a comma-separated
|
|
107
|
+
list of configuration names, such as `small_baseline,small_clos`.
|
|
108
|
+
`--summary` reads the saved tables and renders figures.
|
|
109
|
+
A calculation replaces the complete report directory, even with `--only`.
|
|
110
|
+
If calculation fails, the existing report is kept.
|
|
111
|
+
|
|
112
|
+
The workflow must include these step names:
|
|
113
|
+
|
|
114
|
+
| Step name | NetGraph analysis |
|
|
115
|
+
| --- | --- |
|
|
116
|
+
| `msd_baseline` | `MaximumSupportedDemand`, which searches for a traffic multiplier |
|
|
117
|
+
| `tm_placement` | `TrafficMatrixPlacement` with `alpha_from_step: msd_baseline`, and `outputs: {cost_distribution: true}` for latency |
|
|
118
|
+
| `network_statistics` | `NetworkStats`, which counts network objects |
|
|
119
|
+
|
|
120
|
+
`--enable-maxflow` also needs a `node_to_node_capacity_matrix` step for pairwise
|
|
121
|
+
capacity analysis. Each result needs the run record NetLab writes beside it.
|
|
122
|
+
See [metrics.md](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/metrics.md) for definitions, required fields, worked examples
|
|
123
|
+
and output files. Failure statistics describe the configured
|
|
124
|
+
experiment; they are not measurements of network uptime.
|
|
125
|
+
|
|
126
|
+
To compare two configurations with matching seeds:
|
|
127
|
+
|
|
128
|
+
```bash
|
|
129
|
+
netlab test scenarios/ small_baseline small_clos
|
|
130
|
+
```
|
|
131
|
+
|
|
132
|
+
Both configurations must have been analyzed. The statistical test needs at least
|
|
133
|
+
three matching finite seed results; the two-seed quick start is for running the
|
|
134
|
+
pipeline, not statistical inference.
|
|
135
|
+
|
|
136
|
+
## Python API
|
|
137
|
+
|
|
138
|
+
Save this as a script and point it to a NetGraph scenario:
|
|
139
|
+
|
|
140
|
+
```python
|
|
141
|
+
from pathlib import Path
|
|
142
|
+
from netlab.simulation import run_simulation
|
|
143
|
+
|
|
144
|
+
if __name__ == "__main__":
|
|
145
|
+
outcome = run_simulation(Path("scenario.yml"), timeout=60)
|
|
146
|
+
print(outcome.status, outcome.error)
|
|
147
|
+
```
|
|
148
|
+
|
|
149
|
+
`run_simulation` runs in a local worker process. A successful run saves
|
|
150
|
+
`scenario.results.json` next to the scenario; every run records its status and
|
|
151
|
+
the wall time of each step it ran in `scenario.results.run.json`. The `__main__`
|
|
152
|
+
guard keeps a spawned worker from running the script again. Use `simulate(yaml_text)` to run in the calling
|
|
153
|
+
process, or `inspect_scenario(yaml_text)` to validate and count network objects.
|
|
154
|
+
See [architecture and batch APIs](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/dev/ARCHITECTURE.md).
|
|
155
|
+
|
|
156
|
+
Metric functions read a saved result dictionary:
|
|
157
|
+
|
|
158
|
+
```python
|
|
159
|
+
import json
|
|
160
|
+
from netlab.metrics.bac import compute_bac
|
|
161
|
+
from netlab.metrics.latency import compute_latency_stretch
|
|
162
|
+
from netlab.metrics.msd import compute_alpha_star
|
|
163
|
+
|
|
164
|
+
with open("scenario.results.json") as f:
|
|
165
|
+
results = json.load(f)
|
|
166
|
+
|
|
167
|
+
print(compute_alpha_star(results).alpha_star)
|
|
168
|
+
print(compute_bac(results, step_name="tm_placement").auc_normalized)
|
|
169
|
+
print(compute_latency_stretch(results).failures.get("p99"))
|
|
170
|
+
```
|
|
171
|
+
|
|
172
|
+
They return the per-seed values described in [metrics.md](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/metrics.md).
|
|
173
|
+
`netlab metrics` also checks the result arithmetic before it computes them.
|
|
174
|
+
|
|
175
|
+
## Automated experiments
|
|
176
|
+
|
|
177
|
+
An autoresearch project gives a language model a task description
|
|
178
|
+
(`program.md`), the parameters it may change (`hypothesis_template.yml`) and the
|
|
179
|
+
metric to optimize (`objective.yml`). `init` copies a base scenario that has a
|
|
180
|
+
`MaximumSupportedDemand` step and at least one `${{name}}` placeholder. Each
|
|
181
|
+
placeholder becomes a parameter, and the objective maximizes
|
|
182
|
+
`steps.msd_baseline.result.alpha_feasible.value`, the multiplier of the step named
|
|
183
|
+
`msd_baseline`. A candidate whose search finds no feasible multiplier fails; it
|
|
184
|
+
never scores zero. Review the generated files before a run:
|
|

```bash
|
|
187
|
+
netlab autoresearch init --base-scenario scenario.yml --output project/
|
|
188
|
+
netlab autoresearch run project/ --backend mock --max-experiments 1

The `mock` backend is for testing the workflow. To use an external model, select
|
|
192
|
+
`claude-cli`, `codex-cli` or `openai` and configure that backend's credentials.
|
|
193
|
+
CLI backends need their executable installed and signed in.
|
|
194
|
+
`HypothesisManager` can also turn a free-text hypothesis into a scenario, run it
|
|
195
|
+
and request an interpretation. Those cycle files are saved under `<project>/cycles/`.
|
|
196
|
+
|
|
197
|
+
Run one writer per project; nothing locks the files. A project directory is tied
|
|
198
|
+
to its input files, seed and installed package versions. A sweep output directory
|
|
199
|
+
is tied to its sweep type, seed, iteration count and package versions. If any of
|
|
200
|
+
them changes, NetLab refuses to continue there; start a new directory.
|
|
201
|
+
Rerunning a sweep in its directory skips successful entries and retries failed
|
|
202
|
+
ones. Higher scores rank better; candidates that fail the configured constraints
|
|
203
|
+
cannot become best.

## Development
|
|
210
|
+
|
|
211
|
+
```bash
|
|
212
|
+
make check-ci
|
|
213
|
+
```
|
|
214
|
+
|
|
215
|
+
This checks formatting, lint, types and tests, including NetLab-TopoGen → NetGraph →
|
|
216
|
+
metrics runs using saved geography. See [fixture regeneration](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/tests/data/README.md)
|
|
217
|
+
and [metric verification](https://github.com/networmix/NetLab/blob/main/dev/METRICS_VERIFICATION.md).
|
|
218
|
+
|
|
219
|
+
In Superset, `bash .superset/workspace.sh setup` creates a `venv`, installs the
|
|
220
|
+
development dependencies and copies missing untracked `.env` files from the root
|
|
221
|
+
checkout. The Run button executes `make check-ci`.
|
|
222
|
+
|
|
223
|
+
To test local checkouts of all three dependencies:
|
|
224
|
+
|
|
225
|
+
```bash
|
|
226
|
+
bash dev/check_ngraph_integration.sh /path/to/NetGraph /path/to/NetGraph-Core /path/to/NetLab-TopoGen
|
|
227
|
+
```
|
|
228
|
+
|
|
229
|
+
Replace the paths with your checkouts. The script builds Core and runs checks in
|
|
230
|
+
a temporary environment. It saves source revisions, dependency versions and
|
|
231
|
+
results under `build/ngraph-integration/`.
