This directory contains:
------------------------

* the (linux and Unix sparc) executables for STAN v2.0, 
* the (linux and Unix sparc) executables for the graph construction
  version of STAN (stanmg) 
* a diff file to allow construction of the graph construction version of
  IPP used in the experiments reported in the paper "Efficient
  Implementation of the Plan Graph in STAN" (see below).
* the test domains and problems used in that paper: many of these are a
  selection of the problems used in the AIPS-98 competition. The subsets
  were selected by identifying those problems which were tackled
  successfully in the competition, and adding others in the initial ten
  (or so) for which both IPP and STAN successfully constructed graphs.

Constructing IPP graph construction version: 
--------------------------------------------

Run "patch ipp.c ipp.diff" to create a new version of ipp.c which has a
#define for the constant INITIALONLY. When compiled in this form, the ipp
executable will be the graph construction version. With the #define
removed the executable will be IPP with a couple of timing bugs corrected.
