\maketitle


Latex is a type setting package that is extremely popular for writing computer
science documents.  Latex has the disadvantage that it is NOT WSYWYG, however
it enables using style files to meet the formatting requirements for various
conferences, enables easier revision control diffs since the source files are
text, renders math equations specified with relatively simple text markups,
and automates the processing of building a bibliography when used in
coordination with latex.

This file provides information about using latex and gnuplot and is itself a
sample latex file.  The following sections describe how to compile a latex
file into pdf, how to do tables in latex, how to create plots in gnuplot, how
to include figures into the pdf file, how to write equations, and how to cite
other people's work.
 

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\section{Using Latex}


To compile the cs553-template.tex file into a pdf, you will also need to
download the cs553.bib and plot.pdf files provided on the assignments page.
To compile this file into a pdf use the following commands:
\begin{verbatim}
  pdflatex cs553-template
  bibtex cs553-template
  pdflatex cs553-template
  pdflatex cs553-template
\end{verbatim}

I recommend using a Makefile.  Here is the one our group usually uses.
\begin{verbatim}
LATEX = pdflatex
BIBTEX = bibtex

DOC = cs553-template

$(DOC): $(DOC).tex
        $(LATEX) $(DOC)
        $(BIBTEX) $(DOC)
        $(LATEX) $(DOC)
        $(LATEX) $(DOC)

clean:
        -rm *.bbl *.aux *.blg *.div *.log *.ps 

all: $(DOC)
\end{verbatim}

\section{Tables in Latex}

%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Tables
\begin{table} 
\centering
\begin{tabular}{|l|p{.5in}|p{.5in}|p{.5in}|c|c|}
\hline 
Processor Type & Procs x Cores & First Level Data Cache & Mid Level Cache & Last Level Cache & Memory  \\ 
\hline
\hline 
Intel Core i7 920 & 1x4 & 32 kB & 256 kB & 8 MB shared/4 cores & 6 GB  \\ 
\hline
Intel Xeon E5450 & 2x4 & 32 kB & 256 kB & 6 MB shared/core pair & 16 GB \\ 
\hline
Intel Xeon E7-4860 & 4x10 & 32 kB & 256 kB & 24 MB shared/10 cores & 256 GB \\ 
\hline
\end{tabular}
\caption{Hardware Used in the Performance Evaluation} 
\label{table:machines} 
\end{table}
%%%%%%%%%%%%

Table~\ref{table:machines} shows an example of how to create a table in latex.
You put in horizontal lines with the backslash followed by the word hline.
The ampersands indicate breaks between columns within rows.
The number of columns is specified with the string \\
``{\tt |l|p\{.5in\}|p\{.5in\}|p\{.5in\}|c|c|}".  Notice that before this
string in the latex source we used a double backslash to force a line break.
The c's indicate center justification, the l indicates leftmost justification,
the p with a size indicates a column of the specified width, and the vertical
bars indicate a vertical line will separate the columns.

% Graphs using gnuplot
%%%%%%%%%%%%
\section{Graphs using gnuplot}

Generating graphs with gnuplot is useful because you can create a script and
reuse the same script for multiple data files.

Create the following data files and command files:
\begin{verbatim}
# xy.dat
1 10 
2 20 
3 30 
4 50 

# commands.txt
 set term post eps color
 set output "plot.eps"
 set size square
 set ylabel "ylabel"
 set xlabel "xlabel"
 set title "title"
 set pointsize 2.5              # increases symbol size
 plot "xy.dat" with linespoints # connects points with lines

# morelines.dat
1 10 12
2 20 15
3 30 25
4 50 55

# commands-morelines.txt
 set term post eps color
 set output "plot.eps"
 set size square
 set ylabel "ylabel"
 set xlabel "xlabel"
 set title "title"
 set pointsize 2.5
 plot "morelines.dat" using 1:2 with linespoints, \
      "morelines.dat" using 1:3 with linespoints
\end{verbatim}
Note that the latex source for this file shows how you can have
pre-formatted monospace text using the verbatim environment.

When you type 
\begin{verbatim}
    gnuplot commands.txt
\end{verbatim}
or 
\begin{verbatim}
    gnuplot commands-morelines.txt
\end{verbatim}
gnuplot will generate a plot.eps file.

Then use the command
\begin{verbatim}
    epstopdf plot.eps
\end{verbatim}
to generate a plot.pdf file that you will learn how to include in your latex
file in the next section of this document.

% Including a figure
%%%%%%%%%%%%
\section{Including Figures}

The graphicx package included at the top of the file enables the inclusion of
figures like Figure~\ref{fig:plot}, which shows the figure we created with
commands-morelines.txt.

%%%%%%%%%%%%
\begin{figure}
\centering 
\includegraphics[width=3.5in]{plot}
\caption{A graph showing how to plot two columns of data that share the same x
  coordinates.}
\label{fig:plot}
\end{figure}
%%%%%%%%%%%%


%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Equations
%%%%%%%%%%%%
\section{Equations in latex}

Equations are one of the main reasons to use latex.  Here are some equations
that you will find handy in this class.

\[
P = \{ (i_1, i_2, ..., i_d) \; | \; Q\vec{i} \geq (\vec{q} + B\vec{p}) \}  
\]

\[
A_{J_0 \rightarrow Z_0} = \{ [ j ] \rightarrow [ i ] |  i=l ( j ) \vee i=r(j) \} 
\]

\[
\left[ \begin{array}{cc}
1 & 0 \\
-1 & 0 \\
0 & 1 \\
0 & -1 \\
\end{array} \right]
\left[  \begin{array}{c}
i \\
j \\
\end{array} \right]
\geq
\left[ \begin{array}{c}
1 \\
-6 \\
1 \\
-5 \\
\end{array} \right]
\]

\[
r'() = \{ [v] \rightarrow [w] \; | \; w = \sigma(r(v)) \wedge 0 \leq v,w \leq 7 \}
\]

\[
\Sigma_{i=1}^n i^2
\]

You can also have inline equations such as $x_2 = 5 + \gamma$ and summations
such as $\Sigma_{i=1}^n i^2$.

% Code Listings

\section{Code Listings in latex}

We are computer scientists so we usually write about code.
Figure~\ref{fig:api} has an example that Chris Krieger wrote for a paper we
recently submitted. The code listing uses the listings package included above
and the lstset command also at the top of this file.

\begin{figure}
\begin{lstlisting}
// constructor & destructor
TaskGraph();
virtual ~TaskGraph();
 
// building a TaskGraph
int addTask(Task* t);
int addPred(int nodeID, int predID);
int addSucc(int nodeID, int succID);

// using an existing TaskGraph
int numNodes();
int numLeafNodes();

Task* getTask(int index);

int numPreds(int nodeID);
int numSuccs(int nodeID);
const vector<int>& getPreds(int nodeID);
const vector<int>& getSuccs(int nodeID);
\end{lstlisting}    
\caption{Public interface to the TaskGraph class (some utility methods
  omitted)}
\label{fig:api}
\end{figure}


%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Lists
%%%%%%%%%%%%
\section{Lists in latex}

Sometimes it is
\begin{itemize}
\item useful
\item to
\item have
\item a
\item bulleted list
\end{itemize}
or a 
\begin{enumerate}
\item numbered
\item list
\item in 
\item latex.
\end{enumerate}


%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Citing sources
%%%%%%%%%%%%
We can also cite papers such as the ``Twelve Ways to Fool the Masses"
paper~\cite{Bailey91}.  Other examples include a technical
report~\cite{CGPOPtech} and website~\cite{CGPOPwebpage}.  You should start
using either Bibdesk or JabRef to manage your bibtex references.  Start
putting all of the bibtex entries into Bibdesk or JabRef.  There will be an
assignment to turn in your bibtex entries for all of the reading assignments
in the class so far.  You can often find bibtex entries on the internet at
places like ACM portal and Citeseer.
