Task File: describes the simulation problem
---- Contents ----
NumTasks: <total-num-tasks>
<num-tasks>[<1|2>]: <task-size>
... additional task lines ...

---- Parameters ----
<total-num-tasks> := Total Number of Tasks/Numerical Devices
<num-tasks> := Number of devices of a particular size
<1|2> := Dimensionality of the model for those tasks
<task-size> := Number of equations needed to model these devices

Architecture File: parameters of the compute nodes
---- Contents ----
Mflops: <megaflops>
Mbytes: <megabytes>

---- Parameters ----
<megaflops> := Estimated compute speed of a node
<megabytes> := Number of megabytes of physical memory per node

---- Example: Speed/Memory of UCB CADgroup DS5000/125's.
Mflops: 0.6

Group File:  group and level structure of the parallel machine
-----------
NumNodes: <num-nodes>
NumGroups: <num-groups>
LevelSizes: <level-size-list>
G[<group-instance-level>][<group-instance-size>]{<group-member-list>}
... additional group lines ...

---- Parameters ----
<num-nodes> := Total number of compute nodes in the machine
<num-groups> := Total number of groups that are used to subdivide machine
<level-size-list> := Number of groups at each level, one entry for each level
<group-instance-level> := Level number for this group
<group-instance-size> := Number of compute nodes in group
<group-member-list> := Node ID's of group members, separated by commas
    Each node ID should appear in exactly one group at each level.

---- Example: Groups for 4-node hypercube
NumNodes:   4
NumGroups:  7
NumLevels:  3
LevelSizes: 4 2 1
