Project Meeting 2017.09.15

At-work subtours

• Completed plan for implementation
• Cleaned-up/revised some of the model step names, including expression files, logging/tracing, and user documentation
  • mandatory_scheduling --> mandatory_tour_scheduling
  • destination_choice --> non_mandatory_tour_destination_choice
  • non_mandatory_scheduling --> non_mandatory_tour_scheduling
• Also improved the getting started guide with more details, linking, better organization, etc.
• Merged cleaned-up version to master and posted new package to pypi
• Working on adding arguments to the pipeline model steps to make reuse of model components easier, for example
  • 'location_sample', TYPE='non_mandatory_tour',
  • 'location_sample, TYPE='atwork_subtour',
• After that, start on person time window management
• Will need to update the person time window table after running the earlier models since it's an input to the at-work models

Testing

• During clean-up, we realized we broke testing on Windows. It works on Travis and Mac
• It is broken for @Stefan as well on Windows; @Jeff looking into it on his Windows box

Berkeley meeting prep

  • Project goals
