Trajectory investment workflow

Workflow

The complete workflow is composed of the following four "independent" steps : The first two steps are (order of execution does not matter) :

• User input parsing & formatting : Parses and checks the user input, computes the relevant data and format it for later step.
• Multiple problem generation : Runs the Xpansion problem generation for each study in the tree.
  • Before running the multiple problem generation, generate the MultipleProblemGeneration input files.

Intermediary files :

• master_merger_info.json : See this section for more details.
• nodal_lp_info.json : See this section for more details.

The other two steps have to be executed after the first two :

• Merging the generated master problems : Generates the final merged master problem for this tree.
• Generating the final weights file : Generates a weights file to take into account the properties of each node and its subproblems.

File structure

The expected file structure at the --dataDir looks like :
