Install SIPPI

The latest version of SIPPI can be downloaded from github. See https://sippi.readthedocs.io/ for documentation and examples.

Install SIPPI from github

The current development version of SIPPI (less stable and documented) is hosted on github and can be downloaded (including MGSTAT, SNESIM, VISIM and MPS) using git:

cd INSTALL_DIR
git clone --recursive https://github.com/cultpenguin/sippi.git SIPPI

To update this installation (using mGstat and MSPLIB as submodules) use

git pull --recurse-submodules

Then add a path to SIPPI in Matlab using

addpath INSTALL_DIR/SIPPI
sippi_set_path

To download SIPPI, mGstat and MPSlib seperately use:

cd INSTALL_DIR
git clone  https://github.com/cultpenguin/sippi.git SIPPI
git clone  https://github.com/cultpenguin/mgstat.git mGstat
git clone  https://github.com/ergosimulation/mpslib.git MPSlib

Then add a path to both SIPPI, mGstat and MPS/matlab using

addpath INSTALL_DIR/mGstat
addpath INSTALL_DIR/SIPPI
addpath INSTALL_DIR/MPSlib/matlab
sippi_set_path

Manual compilation

SIPPI (optionally) make use of standalone programs from
SNESIM (github) and
VISIM (part of mGstat). Pre-compiled slef-contained binaries are available for windows and Linux, but for use on OS-X one may need to manually these programs.

These programs are needed to make use of the MPS, VISIM and SNESIM type a priori models (and can hence be ignored if not used).

Compiling VISIM

The source code for VISIM is located in mGstat/visim/visim_src. The compiled program should be placed in mGstat/bin and called visim.

VISIM use pre-allocation of memory (set before compilation). This is defined in visim.inc. If this file is changed, VISIM must be recomiled.

Compiling SNESIM

The source code for SNESIM is available from github.

The compiled program should be placed in mGstat/bin and called snesim.exe (windows) snesim_glnxa64.exe (64 bit Linux) snesim_maci64.exe (64 but OS X).

Compiling MPS

The source code for MPS is available from github. To dowload and compile MPS use for example

cd INSTALL_DIR
git clone  https://github.com/ergosimulation/mpslib.git MPSLIB
cd MPS
make all

Matlabs path should be updated to include INSTALL_DIR/MPSLIB/matlab.

SGeMS (optional)

To make use of the SISIM and SNESIM_STD type prior models, SGeMS needs to be available.

Currently only SGeMS version 2.1 (download) for Windows is supported by SIPPI.

Support for SGeMS will be discontinued after relevase v1.5, as the MPS library will be used instead.
