GRPFAC: Compute Group Co-Performance Factors

Last updated 18 Nov 97

This program computes co-performance factors based on a user-specified list of tasks. It also creates a membership mask of the requested tasks. The output factors can be used in analysis of tasks that didn't necessarily group together in a clustering.

Program Invocation

The specific syntax for program invocation varies between operating systems. This document diplays the code for the AIX version.


@codap grpfac <opt> <ssss> <OM6> <TF6>
opt:      Program Options (none currently supported)
ssss:     The study number
OM6:      Input OVRLAP Matrix file from the task clustering.
TF6:      Output Task Factor file.  The mean factor will be of
	  type 'COP' and the membership mask will be 'MBR'.

GRPFAC Control Card


GRPFAC <study> [<title>]
GRPFAC:   cc 01-06  The literal 'GRPFAC'.
study:    cc 08-11  The study number for this run
title:    cc 13-72  The title used for the output factors. If not specified, the
		    title from the OVRLAP Matrix file will be used.

Task Request Cards

This section describes the format for requesting the desired tasks. There is no limit to the number of these request cards. Blanks on the following card are ignored.


tsk1:     cc 01-04  The next task requested
d1:       cc 05     The literal '-' or blank
tsk2:     cc 06-09  The next task requested
d2:       cc 10     The literal '-' or blank
tsk3:     cc 11-14  The next task requested
d3:       cc 15     The literal '-' or blank
tsk4:     cc 16-19  The next task requested
d4:       cc 20     The literal '-' or blank
tsk5:     cc 21-24  The next task requested
d5:       cc 25     The literal '-' or blank
tsk6:     cc 26-29  The next task requested
d6:       cc 30     The literal '-' or blank
tsk7:     cc 31-34  The next task requested
d7:       cc 35     The literal '-' or blank
tsk8:     cc 36-39  The next task requested
d8:       cc 40     The literal '-' or blank
tsk9:     cc 41-44  The next task requested
d9:       cc 45     The literal '-' or blank
tsk10:    cc 46-49  The next task requested
d10:      cc 50     The literal '-' or blank
tsk11:    cc 51-54  The next task requested
d11:      cc 55     The literal '-' or blank
tsk12:    cc 56-59  The next task requested
d12:      cc 60     The literal '-' or blank
tsk13:    cc 61-64  The next task requested
d13:      cc 65     The literal '-' or blank
tsk14:    cc 66-69  The next task requested
d14:      cc 70     The literal '-' or blank
tsk15:    cc 71-74  The next task requested
d15:      cc 75     The literal '-' or blank
tsk16:    cc 76-79  The next task requested

These cards are terminated by an end-of-file or an '@eof' image.

Example

@codap grpfac - ssss om600 tf600
GRPFAC ssss This title will be used for the output factors
0001-0010 0015-0020 0100-0200
0250-0363
@EOF

This example will create a co-performance factor for tasks 1-10, 15-20, 100-200, and 250-363. All other tasks in the factor will be filled with invalid values.
