Description

Short description

The tags from-/to-patch in the topology are not descriptive enough. Change them to from-/to-location-name and from-/to-location-type (i.e., from-/to-patch is renamed to from-/to-location-name and a new tag from-/to-location-type is introduced).

Details

Follow the ideas here.

This probably does not require changing the NodeCreator, except maybe for renaming of the patch objects/storage.
It should only require storing this new attribute and passing it to the adapter config file.

  • Change the method get_mesh_patch_map in NodeCreator. It should work with the new PatchNode's exclusively, not strings. This will actually facilitate the implementation of the -location-type as we can just store and return it there as well.
  • Change the mesh generation logic to split up a mesh into -{type}-extensive and -{type}-intensive.
