The transceiver element acts as a "logical starting/stopping point" for the spectral information propagation. At that point it is not meant to represent the capacity of add drop ports

 How to Install
 --------------
 
-Install either via `Docker <docs/install.rst#install-docker>`__, or as a `Python package <docs/install.rst#install-pip>`__.
+Using prebuilt Docker images
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Our `Docker images <https://hub.docker.com/r/telecominfraproject/oopt-gnpy>`_ contain everything needed to run all examples from this guide.
+Docker transparently fetches the image over the network upon first use.
+On Linux and Mac, run:
+
+
+.. code-block:: shell-session
+
+    $ docker run -it --rm --volume $(pwd):/shared telecominfraproject/oopt-gnpy
+    root@bea050f186f7:/shared/examples#
+
+On Windows, launch from Powershell as:
+
+.. code-block:: powershell
+
+    PS C:\> docker run -it --rm --volume ${PWD}:/shared telecominfraproject/oopt-gnpy
+    root@89784e577d44:/shared/examples#
+
+In both cases, a directory named ``examples/`` will appear in your current working directory.
+GNPy automaticallly populates it with example files from the current release.
+Remove that directory if you want to start from scratch.
+
+Using Python on your computer
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+   **Note**: `gnpy` supports Python 3 only. Python 2 is not supported.
+   `gnpy` requires Python ≥3.6
+
+   **Note**: the `gnpy` maintainers strongly recommend the use of Anaconda for
+   managing dependencies.
+
+It is recommended that you use a "virtual environment" when installing `gnpy`.
+Do not install `gnpy` on your system Python.
+
+We recommend the use of the `Anaconda Python distribution <https://www.anaconda.com/download>`_ which comes with many scientific computing
+dependencies pre-installed. Anaconda creates a base "virtual environment" for
+you automatically. You can also create and manage your ``conda`` "virtual
+environments" yourself (see:
+https://conda.io/docs/user-guide/tasks/manage-environments.html)
+
+To activate your Anaconda virtual environment, you may need to do the
+following:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ source /path/to/anaconda/bin/activate # activate Anaconda base environment
+    (base) $                                # note the change to the prompt
+
+You can check which Anaconda environment you are using with:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    (base) $ conda env list                          # list all environments
+    # conda environments:
+    #
+    base                  *  /src/install/anaconda3
+
+    (base) $ echo $CONDA_DEFAULT_ENV                 # show default environment
+    base
+
+You can check your version of Python with the following. If you are using
+Anaconda's Python 3, you should see similar output as below. Your results may
+be slightly different depending on your Anaconda installation path and the
+exact version of Python you are using.
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ which python                   # check which Python executable is used
+    /path/to/anaconda/bin/python
+    $ python -V                      # check your Python version
+    Python 3.6.5 :: Anaconda, Inc.
+
+From within your Anaconda Python 3 environment, you can clone the master branch
+of the `gnpy` repo and install it with:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ git clone https://github.com/Telecominfraproject/oopt-gnpy # clone the repo
+    $ cd oopt-gnpy
+    $ python setup.py install                                    # install
+
+To test that `gnpy` was successfully installed, you can run this command. If it
+executes without a ``ModuleNotFoundError``, you have successfully installed
+`gnpy`.
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ python -c 'import gnpy' # attempt to import gnpy
+
+    $ pytest                  # run tests

-Simulations are driven by a set of `JSON <docs/json.rst>`__ or `XLS <docs/excel.rst>`__ files.
+Design and transmission parameters are defined in a dedicated json file. By
+default, this information is read from `examples/eqpt_config.json
+<examples/eqpt_config.json>`_. This file defines the equipment libraries that
+can be customized (EDFAs, fibers, and transceivers).
 
-The ``gnpy-transmission-example`` script propagates a spectrum of channels at 32 Gbaud, 50 GHz spacing and 0 dBm/channel. 
+It also defines the simulation parameters (spans, ROADMs, and the spectral
+information to transmit.)
+
+The EDFA equipment library is a list of supported amplifiers. New amplifiers
+can be added and existing ones removed. Three different noise models are available:
+
+1. ``'type_def': 'variable_gain'`` is a simplified model simulating a 2-coil EDFA with internal, input and output VOAs. The NF vs gain response is calculated accordingly based on the input parameters: ``nf_min``, ``nf_max``, and ``gain_flatmax``. It is not a simple interpolation but a 2-stage NF calculation.
+2. ``'type_def': 'fixed_gain'`` is a fixed gain model.  `NF == Cte == nf0` if `gain_min < gain < gain_flatmax`
+3. ``'type_def': None`` is an advanced model. A detailed JSON configuration file is required (by default `examples/std_medium_gain_advanced_config.json <examples/std_medium_gain_advanced_config.json>`_). It uses a 3rd order polynomial where NF = f(gain), NF_ripple = f(frequency), gain_ripple = f(frequency), N-array dgt = f(frequency). Compared to the previous models, NF ripple and gain ripple are modelled.

+Simulation parameters are defined as follows.
+
+Auto-design automatically creates EDFA amplifier network elements when they are
+missing, after a fiber, or between a ROADM and a fiber. This auto-design
+functionality can be manually and locally deactivated by introducing a ``Fused``
+network element after a ``Fiber`` or a ``Roadm`` that doesn't need amplification.
+The amplifier is chosen in the EDFA list of the equipment library based on
+gain, power, and NF criteria. Only the EDFA that are marked
+``'allowed_for_design': true`` are considered.
+
+For amplifiers defined in the topology JSON input but whose ``gain = 0``
+(placeholder), auto-design will set its gain automatically: see ``power_mode`` in
+the ``Spans`` library to find out how the gain is calculated.
+
+Span configuration is performed as follows. It is not a list (which may change

+parameters:

+The `transmission_main_example.py <examples/transmission_main_example.py>`_ script propagates a spectrum of channels at 32 Gbaud, 50 GHz spacing and 0 dBm/channel. 
 Launch power can be overridden by using the ``--power`` argument.
 Spectrum information is not yet parametrized but can be modified directly in the ``eqpt_config.json`` (via the ``SpectralInformation`` -SI- structure) to accommodate any baud rate or spacing.
 The number of channel is computed based on ``spacing`` and ``f_min``, ``f_max`` values.

+     Usage: path_requests_run.py [-h] [-v] [-o OUTPUT] [network_filename] [service_filename] [eqpt_filename]
 
-This program operates on a network topology (`JSON <docs/json.rst>`__ or `Excel <docs/excel.rst>`__ format), processing the list of service requests (JSON or XLS again).
-The service requests and reply formats are based on the `draft-ietf-teas-yang-path-computation-01 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-teas-yang-path-computation-01>`__ with custom extensions (e.g., for transponder modes).
-An example of the JSON input is provided in file `service-template.json`, while results are shown in `path_result_template.json`.
+The ``network_filename`` and ``service_filename`` can be an XLS or JSON file. The ``eqpt_filename`` must be a JSON file.
 
-Important note: ``gnpy-path-request`` is not a network dimensionning tool: each service does not reserve spectrum, or occupy ressources such as transponders. It only computes path feasibility assuming the spectrum (between defined frequencies) is loaded with "nb of channels" spaced by "spacing" values as specified in the system parameters input in the service file, each cannel having the same characteristics in terms of baudrate, format,... as the service transponder. The transceiver element acts as a "logical starting/stopping point" for the spectral information propagation. At that point it is not meant to represent the capacity of add drop ports.
-As a result transponder type is not part of the network info. it is related to the list of services requests.
+To see an example of it, run:
 
-The current version includes a spectrum assigment features that enables to compute a candidate spectrum assignment for each service based on a first fit policy. Spectrum is assigned based on service specified spacing value, path_bandwidth value and selected mode for the transceiver. This spectrum assignment includes a basic capacity planning capability so that the spectrum resource is limited by the frequency min and max values defined for the links. If the requested services reach the link spectrum capacity, additional services feasibility are computed but marked as blocked due to spectrum reason.

+- Goal is to build an end-to-end simulation environment which defines the

+  requirements for the TIP OLS building blocks.   
+- The model may be approximate or complete depending on the network complexity.
+  Each model shall be validated against the proposed network scenario. 
+- The environment must be able to process network models from multiple vendors,
+  and also allow users to pick any implementation in an open source framework. 
+- The PSE will influence and benefit from the innovation of the DTC, API, and
+  OLS working groups.
+- The PSE represents a step along the journey towards multi-layer optimization.

-Installing GNPy
----------------
-
-There are several methods on how to obtain GNPy.
-The easiest option for a non-developer is probably going via our :ref:`Docker images<install-docker>`.
-Developers are encouraged to install the :ref:`Python package in the same way as any other Python package<install-pip>`.
-Note that this needs a :ref:`working installation of Python<install-python>`, for example :ref:`via Anaconda<install-anaconda>`.
-
-.. _install-docker:
-
-Using prebuilt Docker images
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Our `Docker images <https://hub.docker.com/r/telecominfraproject/oopt-gnpy>`_ contain everything needed to run all examples from this guide.
-Docker transparently fetches the image over the network upon first use.
-On Linux and Mac, run:
-
-
-.. code-block:: shell-session
-
-    $ docker run -it --rm --volume $(pwd):/shared telecominfraproject/oopt-gnpy
-    root@bea050f186f7:/shared/example-data#
-
-On Windows, launch from Powershell as:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    PS C:\> docker run -it --rm --volume ${PWD}:/shared telecominfraproject/oopt-gnpy
-    root@89784e577d44:/shared/example-data#
-
-In both cases, a directory named ``example-data/`` will appear in your current working directory.
-GNPy automaticallly populates it with example files from the current release.
-Remove that directory if you want to start from scratch.
-
-.. _install-python:
-
-Using Python on your computer
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-   **Note**: `gnpy` supports Python 3 only. Python 2 is not supported.
-   `gnpy` requires Python ≥3.6
-
-   **Note**: the `gnpy` maintainers strongly recommend the use of Anaconda for
-   managing dependencies.
-
-It is recommended that you use a "virtual environment" when installing `gnpy`.
-Do not install `gnpy` on your system Python.
-
-.. _install-anaconda:
-
-We recommend the use of the `Anaconda Python distribution <https://www.anaconda.com/download>`_ which comes with many scientific computing
-dependencies pre-installed. Anaconda creates a base "virtual environment" for
-you automatically. You can also create and manage your ``conda`` "virtual
-environments" yourself (see:
-https://conda.io/docs/user-guide/tasks/manage-environments.html)
-
-To activate your Anaconda virtual environment, you may need to do the
-following:
-
-.. code-block:: shell-session
-
-    $ source /path/to/anaconda/bin/activate # activate Anaconda base environment
-    (base) $                                # note the change to the prompt
-
-You can check which Anaconda environment you are using with:
-
-.. code-block:: shell-session
-
-    (base) $ conda env list                          # list all environments
-    # conda environments:
-    #
-    base                  *  /src/install/anaconda3
-
-    (base) $ echo $CONDA_DEFAULT_ENV                 # show default environment
-    base
-
-You can check your version of Python with the following. If you are using
-Anaconda's Python 3, you should see similar output as below. Your results may
-be slightly different depending on your Anaconda installation path and the
-exact version of Python you are using.
-
-.. code-block:: shell-session
-
-    $ which python                   # check which Python executable is used
-    /path/to/anaconda/bin/python
-    $ python -V                      # check your Python version
-    Python 3.6.5 :: Anaconda, Inc.
-
-.. _install-pip:
-
-Installing the Python package
-*****************************
-
-From within your Anaconda Python 3 environment, you can clone the master branch
-of the `gnpy` repo and install it with:
-
-.. code-block:: shell-session
-
-    $ git clone https://github.com/Telecominfraproject/oopt-gnpy # clone the repo
-    $ cd oopt-gnpy
-    $ python setup.py develop
-
-To test that `gnpy` was successfully installed, you can run this command. If it
-executes without a ``ModuleNotFoundError``, you have successfully installed
-`gnpy`.
-
-.. code-block:: shell-session
-
-    $ python -c 'import gnpy' # attempt to import gnpy
-
-    $ pytest                  # run tests

-JSON Input Files
-================
-
-GNPy uses a set of JSON files for modeling the network.
-Some data (such as network topology or the service requests) can be also passed via :ref:`XLS files<excel-service-sheet>`.
-
-Equipment Library
------------------
-
-Design and transmission parameters are defined in a dedicated json file. By
-default, this information is read from `gnpy/example-data/eqpt_config.json
-<gnpy/example-data/eqpt_config.json>`_. This file defines the equipment libraries that
-can be customized (EDFAs, fibers, and transceivers).
-
-It also defines the simulation parameters (spans, ROADMs, and the spectral
-information to transmit.)
-
-EDFA
-~~~~
-
-The EDFA equipment library is a list of supported amplifiers. New amplifiers
-can be added and existing ones removed. Three different noise models are available:
-
-1. ``'type_def': 'variable_gain'`` is a simplified model simulating a 2-coil EDFA with internal, input and output VOAs. The NF vs gain response is calculated accordingly based on the input parameters: ``nf_min``, ``nf_max``, and ``gain_flatmax``. It is not a simple interpolation but a 2-stage NF calculation.
-2. ``'type_def': 'fixed_gain'`` is a fixed gain model.  `NF == Cte == nf0` if `gain_min < gain < gain_flatmax`
-3. ``'type_def': None`` is an advanced model. A detailed JSON configuration file is required (by default `gnpy/example-data/std_medium_gain_advanced_config.json <gnpy/example-data/std_medium_gain_advanced_config.json>`_). It uses a 3rd order polynomial where NF = f(gain), NF_ripple = f(frequency), gain_ripple = f(frequency), N-array dgt = f(frequency). Compared to the previous models, NF ripple and gain ripple are modelled.

-Simulation parameters
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Auto-design automatically creates EDFA amplifier network elements when they are
-missing, after a fiber, or between a ROADM and a fiber. This auto-design
-functionality can be manually and locally deactivated by introducing a ``Fused``
-network element after a ``Fiber`` or a ``Roadm`` that doesn't need amplification.
-The amplifier is chosen in the EDFA list of the equipment library based on
-gain, power, and NF criteria. Only the EDFA that are marked
-``'allowed_for_design': true`` are considered.
-
-For amplifiers defined in the topology JSON input but whose ``gain = 0``
-(placeholder), auto-design will set its gain automatically: see ``power_mode`` in
-the ``Spans`` library to find out how the gain is calculated.
-
-Span

+=================
+
+This module contains utilities for converting between XLS and JSON.
+
+The input XLS file must contain sheets named "Nodes" and "Links".
+It may optionally contain a sheet named "Eqpt".
+
+In the "Nodes" sheet, only the "City" column is mandatory. The column "Type"
+can be determined automatically given the topology (e.g., if degree 2, ILA;
+otherwise, ROADM.) Incorrectly specified types (e.g., ILA for node of
+degree ≠ 2) will be automatically corrected.
+
+In the "Links" sheet, only the first three columns ("Node A", "Node Z" and
+"east Distance (km)") are mandatory.  Missing "west" information is copied from
+the "east" information so that it is possible to input undirected data.

+This module contains the base class for a network element.
+
+Strictly, a network element is any callable which accepts an immutable
+:class:`.info.SpectralInformation` object and returns an :class:`.info.SpectralInformation` object
+(a copy).
+
+Network elements MUST implement two attributes .uid and .name representing a
+unique identifier and a printable name.
+
+This base class provides a more convenient way to define a network element
+via subclassing.
