@defmodule[(submod dds/networks typed)]
This module provides definitions for and analysing network models. A network
is a set of variables which are updated according to their corresponding update
functions. The variables to be updated at each step are given by the mode.
This model can generalise Boolean networks, TBANs, multivalued networks, etc.
@section[#:tag "networks-basics"]{Basic types}
@deftypeform[(State a)]{
An immutable mapping (a hash table) assigning elements of type @racket[a] to
the variables. A synonym of @racket[VariableMapping].
}
@deftypeform[(UpdateFunction a)]{
An update function is a function computing a value from the given
state. This is a synonym of the type @racket[(-> (State a) a)].
}
@deftypeform[(Domain a)]{
A domain which is a subset of the type @racket[a].
@racket[(Domain a)] is a synonym of @racket[(Listof a)].
}
@deftypeform[(DomainMapping a)]{
A domain mapping is a hash table mapping variables to the lists of values in
their domains.
}
@section{Common examples}
The examples in this document often use the same definitions, which are
therefore grouped here to avoid duplicating them.
These are two functions calculating an @italic{AND} and an @italic{OR} between
the variables @racket[a] and @racket[b]:
@ex[
(: or-func (UpdateFunction Boolean))
(define (or-func s)
(or (hash-ref s 'a) (hash-ref s 'b)))
(: and-func (UpdateFunction Boolean))
(define (and-func s)
(and (hash-ref s 'a) (hash-ref s 'b)))
]
These are two functions calculating an @italic{AND} and an @italic{OR} between
two variables @racket[a] and @racket[b] whose values are in @tt{{0,1}}:
@ex[
(require (only-in "utils.rkt" assert-type))
(: or-func/01 (UpdateFunction (U Zero One)))
(define (or-func/01 s)
(assert-type (max (hash-ref s 'a) (hash-ref s 'b))
(U Zero One)))

update functions, together with a mapping from its variables to its

will not work.

@section{Inferring interaction graphs}
This section provides inference of both unsigned and signed interaction graphs.
Since the inference of signed interaction graphs is based on analysing the
dynamics of the networks, it may be quite resource-consuming, especially since
any syntactic forms are allowed in the definitions of the functions.
We use the term @emph{syntactic interaction graph} to refer to the graph in
which the presence of an arc from @tt{x} to @tt{y} is based on whether @tt{x}
appears in the form of @tt{y}. This is quite different from the canonical
definition of the @emph{interaction graph}, in which the arc from @tt{x} to
@tt{y} represents the fact that a change in the value of @tt{x} may lead to
a change in the value of @tt{y}. Thus the syntactic interaction graph may have
extra arcs if @tt{x} appears in the form of @tt{y}, but has no actual influence
on @tt{y}.
@defproc[(list-syntactic-interactions [nf (NetworkForm a)]
[x Variable])
(Listof Variable)]{
Lists the variables of the network form appearing in the update function form
for @racket[x].
The variables which are not part of the network are excluded from the listing.
