Processing raw Spectre Monte Carlo data ?

MarkGr15
MarkGr15 over 10 years ago

I am using OceanXL (within ADEXL created scripts) to kick off Monte Carlo simulations. I would like to be able to post process the data myself, to be able to calculate the mean, sigmas etc... 

Is the raw data available for this, and how is it organized? I am having a hard time deciphering the file structure etc....

I do see the results listed in an output log, when I add " -log ocean_montecarlo_output.log" as a an option to the command line that I use to kick off my scripts.

The upshot is I want to be able to find the raw data in the output directory, and post process the measured data.

I am using IC6.1.6-64b.500.9.  

spectre -W  => sub-version  13.1.1.049

thanks

    Andrew,

    I am using the ocnxlOutputSummary() function:

    ocnxlOutputSummary(?yieldSummary t ?exprSummary nil ?specSummary nil ?detailed nil)

    However, my manager wants me to provide the raw results to a higher level program we are using internally. If theaxlReadHistoryResDB API function will help me  do that, I would prefer to do that.  However, looking at the function itself in the Skill-reference, I do not have an idea of how to use it. It appears to be more involved than just using that function.

    thanks
