Package: kadmos
IntroductionKADMOS (Knowledge- and graph-based Agile Design with Multidisciplinary Optimization System) is a new software system which is currently being developed in the [AGILE](http://www.agile-project.eu/) innovation project. It aims at increasing the agility of aircraft design teams that perform multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO). By increased agility, an MDO-based development process is meant that better fits the iterative nature of performing aircraft design. KADMOS has been developed on the notion that performing MDO is analogous to performing music with a large symphonic orchestra, however, in the MDO domain a music notation system is missing, which prevents us from composing large, complex pieces.Repository StructureThe repository is structured as follows:dist/contains copies of all major distributions of KADMOSdocs/contains the documentationexamples/contains two example knowlegde bases and scriptskadmos/cmdowscontains tools for interacting with CMDOWS filesexternalcontains mainly third party scripts used at various parts in the codegraphcontains the main graph-based logic for KADMOSutilitiescontains several helper functionsvistomscontains source files for the VISTOMS visualizationslicense.mdcontains the licensereadme.mdcontains this documentCreditsKADMOS is currently being developed at [TU Delft](https://tudelft.nl) by [Imco van Gent](https://bitbucket.org/imcovangent/) as an open-source project. KADMOS can still be considered as an early beta and is subjected to change. Ideas and improvement suggestions are greatly appreciated!Changelog## 0.9.11 (10/12/2020)Inclusion of partitioning algorithms in uncoverged-MDA/OPT/DOE and converged-DOE architecturesSeveral small bug fixes and code cleanup## 0.9.10 (14/12/2020)Improved resolvement of problematic variablesBug fix in VISTOMS regarding ‘right-click’ option in XDSMSeveral bug fixes for Python 3## 0.9.9 (13/11/2019)Updated all code to work with NetworkX 2.4Several bug fixes## 0.9.8 (18/10/2019)Changed variable node names to include all attributes (for OpenLEGO compatibility)Several bug fixes for Python 3 in combination with Windows## 0.9.7 (27/02/2019)Bug fix in Python 3 compatibility of create_dsm method## 0.9.6 (19/02/2019)Restructured process graphsSmall bug fix in VISTOMS## 0.9.5 (19/02/2019)Version skipped## 0.9.4 (06/02/2019)Improved PDF compilation with pdflatexSmall bug fix for Python 3 compatibility in XML merger## 0.9.3 (05/02/2019)Added option for pdflatex path input to create_dsm method## 0.9.2 (31/01/2019)KADMOS is now Python 3.7 compatibleBug fix in unconverged-MDA## 0.9.1 (29/01/2019)Small updates for BLISS-2000 architectureRemoved KeChainMixinBug fixes for VISTOMS## 0.9.0 (03/12/2018)Based on a new version of the Common MDO Workflow Schema (CMDOWS): 0.9Major update of VISTOMS, including interactive manipulation of graphs using KADMOS functions in the VISTOMS GUI.Several bug fixes and improvements## 0.8.3 (23/10/2018)Several bug fixes and improvementsImprovement and enhancements in static and interactive VISTOMSAdditions for KE-chain integration## 0.8.2 (31/05/2018)Several bug fixes and improvementsImprovement and enhancements in interactive VISTOMSDetailed adjustments to further match KADMOS and CMDOWS 0.8Additions to the CMDOWS 0.8 schema (additional metadata on local execution, licensing, references)## 0.8.1 (17/04/2018)Included first stable version of interactive VISTOMSDetailed adjustments to match KADMOS and CMDOWS 0.8## 0.8.0 (29/03/2018)Matching KADMOS with CMDOWS 0.8Inclusion of distributed architectures CO and BLISS-2000Added SuperSonic Business Jet (SSBJ) example## 0.7.7 (05/02/2017)Additional CMDOWS functionsBug fixesPip install for latest KE-chain 2.7## 0.7.6 (21/12/2017)Further matching of KADMOS with CMDOWS 0.7General improvements, enhancements and bug fixesDeprecated KnowledgeBase class and enhanced CMDOWS load to handle XML I/OsImproved MDAO Process Graph determination to account for data dependenciesExtended CMDOWS file operations libraryImproved determination of function hierarchyAdded function to automatically determine an optimal function orderUpdated all code to work with NetworkX 2.0## 0.7 (08/09/2017)Matching KADMOS with CMDOWS 0.7General improvements and enhancements## 0.6Skipped## 0.5 (31/05/17)First public release of KADMOS
