18. Lua and the Web Where is Lua?  Inside Brazil  Petrobras, the Brazilian Oil Company  Embratel (the main telecommunication company in Brazil)  many other companies  Outside Brazil  Lua is used in hundreds of projects, both commercial and academic  CGILua still in restricted use  until recently all documentation was in Portuguese TerraME Programming Language: Extension of Lua Lua is the language of choice for computer games [Ierusalimschy et al, 1996] source: the Lua team

19. Lua Roberto Ierusalimschy PUC-Rio, Brazil

20. What is Lua?  Yet Another Scripting Language  an “extension” language  implemented as a library in ANSI C Host Program Lua Interpreter -- a Lua script color = RED b = button { label = ‘OK’, x = 10, y = 20}

21. Why Lua?  Simple and flexible  “Simple things simple, complex things possible”  Small, Efficient, Portable  Whole library written in ANSI C, compiles the same source code in all platforms  Typical uses: MS-DOS, Windows (3.1, 95, NT), Unix (Linux, Solaris, IRIX, AIX, ULTRIX), Next, OS/2, Mac

22. How is Lua?  Pascal-like Syntax.  Interpreter executes sequence of statements.  function definitions are also statements (see later)  Six types: numbers, tables, functions, strings, userdata, nil function fat (n) if n == 0 then return 1 else return n*fat(n-1) end

23. Variables and Values  Case sensitive  semicolon may optionally follow any statement a = 1 b = a*2 print(a) print(b)

24. Comments  double hyphen (--) until the end of the line.  block comments start with --[[ and run until ]] print("hello") -- my comment -- print("hello”) --[[ print(10) -- no action (comment) --]]

25. My first Lua program C = 2 -- rain/t K = 0.4 -- flow coefficient q = 0 -- RULES for time = 0, 20, 1 do -- soil water q = q + C - K*q end print(“q = "..q)

26. Types

27. Type nil Different from everything else Default variable type Also acts as false (boolean)

28. Type boolean  Comparison value  if (rain == true) then....

29. boolean  false/true  nil and false are false, everything else is true  zero and the empty string are true  operators and, or, and not print(true and false) print(true and (false or true)) print(false or (true and false) or (true and true))

30. number  the only type for numeric values  double-precision floating-point number  arithmetic operators: +, –, *, /  exponent (^) and modulus (%)  boolean operators (, =, ~=, and ==) A = 6 + 2.2 * 4e+3 a = A ^ 2 b = A % 7 print(a > b) print(b ~= 2)

31. Parentheses Always optional (except in the case of function call) When in doubt, use parentheses a+-i (a + (-i)) < ((b/2)+1) 5+x^2*8 5 + ( (x^2)*8 ) a (a < y) and (y <= z) –x^y^z –(x^(y^z))

32. Type string  Immutable  No size limit (read large files as strings)  No termination value (‘\0’)  Powerful Pattern-matching in standard library  myname = “Werner Kuhn”;

33. if statement An if statement tests condition and executes its then-part or its else-part (optional) accordingly a = 6; b = 5 if a < b then print("a < b") elseif a < b + 5 then print("b <= a < b+5") else print("a > b+5") end

34. for statement for var = exp1, exp2, exp3 do something end  Execute something for each value of var from exp1 to exp2, using exp3 as the step to increment var. This third expression is optional (default is 1). for i = 1, 10 do print(i) end for i = 1, 10, 2 do print(i) end

35. Tables  Implement associative arrays:  any value (including functions and other tables) can be used both for indices and values t = {} -- creates an empty table t[1] = "hello" t.x = print -- t.x is sugar for t[‘x’] t.x(t[1]) -- prints ‘hello’ t.next = t -- circular list

36. table  Tables can be indexed not only with numbers, but also with strings or any other value of the language, except nil loc = { cover = "forest", distRoad = 0.3, distUrban = 2 } print(loc["cover"]) print(loc.cover) loc.distRoad = loc.distRoad^2 loc.distTotal = loc.distRoad + loc.distUrban loc.deforestationPot = 1/loc.distTotal

37. Tables within tables loc = { cover = "forest", dist = {road = 0.3, urban = 2} } print(loc.dist.road) loc.dist.total = loc.dist.road + loc.dist.urban print(loc.dist.total)

38. Constructors: Create and init tables  Record style  point={x=10,y=20}  print(point.y) --> 20  List style  days={ " Sun ", " Mon ", " Tue ", " Wed”, Sat " }  print(days[3]) --> Tue  Mixed style  points={{x=0,y=0}, point, n=2}  print(points[points.n].y) --> 20

39. Lua and the Web Constructors article{ author="F.P.Brooks", title="The Mythical Man-Month", year=1975, } news = { {text = "New version 2.0", date = "21/05/1997"}, {text = "New example", date = "21/05/1997"}, {text = "New version: 2.1",date = "17/06/1997"}, } calls function “article”

40. function  A function can carry out a specific task (commonly called procedure) or compute and return values.  A function is a first-class value in Lua.  Functions can be stored in variables and in tables, can be passed as arguments, and can be returned by other functions, giving great flexibility to the language. myprint = print print = nil myprint(2) print = myprint

41. Functions in Lua function fat (n) if n == 0 then return 1 else return n*fat(n-1) end

42. Higher-order Functions  Functions can also be parameters to other functions. This kind of function is what we call a higher-order function. function foreach(tab, func) for position, value in pairs(tab) do func(value, position) end x = {7, 3, 2, 6, 4} foreach(x, function(element) print(element) end) foreach(x, function(value, position) print(position, value) end)

43. Lua and the Web Functions in Lua  First class values function inc (x) return x+1 end inc = function (x) return x+1 end sugar clone = {} foreach(t, function (i,e) clone[i]=e end)  Example: cloning a table t

44. Functions and Tables w = { redraw = function ()... end, pick = function (x,y)... end, } if w.pick(x,y) then w.redraw() end

45. Tables with functions Tables may have their own functions. loc = { cover = "forest", distRoad = 0.3, distUrban = 2, deforestPot = function(myloc) return 1/(myloc.distRoad + myloc.distUrban) end } print(loc.deforestPot(loc)) print(loc:deforestPot())

46. Tables with functions  We can declare a “class” in Lua by creating a function that takes a table constructor as argument. function MyLocation(locdata) locdata.covertype = "forest" locdata.deforPot = function(self) return 1/(self.distRoad + self.distUrban) end return locdata end loc = MyLocation({distRoad = 0.3, distUrban = 2}) loc = MyLocation{distRoad = 0.3, distUrban = 2} print(loc.covertype) print(loc:deforPot())

47. Tables x Objects  Tables are dynamically created objects. list value - v next - old list... list = {value=v, next=list}

48. Objects  First-class functions+ tables = almost OO  Tables can have functions as fields  Sugar for method definition and call  Implicit parameter self a.foo(a,x)a:foo(x) a.foo = function (self,x)... end function a:foo (x)... end sugar

49. My second Lua program C = 2; -- rain/t K = 0.4; -- flow coefficient q = 0; -- function rain (t) if (t < 10) then return 4 – 4*math.cos(math.pi*t/10); else return 4 – 4*math.cos(math.pi*(t-10)/10); end -- for time = 0, 20, 1 do -- soil water q = q + rain(time) - K*q; end -- report print(“q = "..q);

53. TerraME Runtime Environment

54. TerraME allows nested scales

55. Nested scales are necessary for human- environment models Diverse space partitions can have different scales

56. Cellular Space A geographical area of interest, divided into a grid. Each cell in the grid has one or more attributes. Stored and retrieved from a TerraLib database

57. Loading Data -- Loads the TerraLib cellular space csCabecaDeBoi = CellularSpace { dbType = "ADO", host = “localhost", database = "c:\\cabecaDeBoi.mdb", user = "", password = "", layer = "cellsLobo90x90", theme = "cells", select = { “height", “soilWater", “capInf" } } csCabecaDeBoi:load(); csCabecaDeBoi:loadMooreNeighbourhood; GIS

58. Creating temporary cellular spaces game = CellularSpace { xdim = N, ydim = N }

59. Referencing cells A CellularSpace has a special attribute called cells. It is a one-dimensional table of references for each Cell in the CellularSpace -- c is the seventh cell in the cellular space c = csCabecaDeBoi.cells[ 7 ]; -- Updating the attribute “infcap” from the seventh cell c.infcap = 10; print (csCabecaDeBoi.cells[7].infCap);

60. Database management -- loads a cellular space csAmazonia:load() csAmazonia:loadNeighbourhood("Moore") -- save (time, themeName, attrTableName) -- for time = 1, 10,1 do csAmazonia:save(time, “sim", {"water"}) end

61. The Cell type A Cell value has two special attributes: latency and past. The latency attribute registers the period of time since the last change in a cell attribute value. The past attribute is a copy of all cell attribute values in the instant of the last change. if(cell.cover == "abandon" and cell.latency >= 10) then cell.cover = "secFor" end cell.water = cell.past.water + 2

62. Traversing a Cell Space forEachCell(cs, function()) Applies the chosen function to each cell of the cellular space. This function enables using different rules in a cellular space. forEachCell(csQ, function(cell) cell.Water = cell.past.Water + 2 return true end )

63. Von Neumann Neighborhood Moore Neighborhood Isotropic neighbourhoods in cell spaces

64. Traversing a Neighbourhood csq:loadNeighbourhood(“Moore”); forEachCell(csQ, function(cell) count = 0; forEachNeighbour(cell, 0, function(cell, neigh) if (neigh.past.value == 1 and neigh ~= cell) then count = count + 1; end end; ); -- for each neighbor

65. for i, cell ipairs( csValeDoAnary ) do end count = 0 ; print(“Number of deforested cells: ”.. count); if ( cell.past.sim_cover == 1 ) then cell.sim_cover = 0; count = count + 1 ; end cell.synchronize( ); Synchronizing a cell space tntn t n+1 rule ?

66. Synchronizing a cell space tntn t n+1 rule TerraME keeps two copies of a cellular space in memory: one stores the past values of the cell attributes, and another stores the current (present) values of the cell attributes. The model equations must read (the right side of the equation rules) the past copy, and must write (the left side of the equation rules) the values to the present copy of the cellular space. At the correct moment, it will be necessary to synchronize the two copies of the cellular space, copying the current attribute values to the past copy of the cellular space

67. Synchronization Always read from the past Always write to the present …. csQ:syncronize();

68. Trajectories: spatial patterns of change modeller defined functions which map indexes (atributtes) to geo-objects (cells). it = Trajectory{ myCellSpace, function(cell) return cell.cover == "forest“ end, function( c1, c2 ) return c1.dist_roads < c2.dist_roads end }

69. Which objects are nearest to each other?

70. Using Generalized Proximity Matrices (GPM) Consolidated areaEmergent area

71. TerraME neighborhoods are graphs Euclidean space Open network Closed network D2 D1 [Aguiar et al., 2003]

72. Create or load neighborhoods -- Create a Moore neighborhood createMooreNeighborhood( myCellSpace, “neighName” ) -- Create a 3x3 neighborhood create3x3Neighborhood(myCellSpace, filterF(), weightF(), name ) -- Create a MxN neighborhood createMxNNeighborhood( M, N, myCellSpace,filterF(), weightF(), name ) -- Load neighborhood from TerraLib database myCellSpace: loadTerraLibGPM(“myGPM"); -- Load neighborhood from TerraLib GAL files myCellSpace:loadGALNeighborhood("c:\\myNeigh.gal")

73. Building neighborhoods between cell spaces spatialCoupling( M, N, cs1,cs2, filterF, weightF, name ) filterF(cell, neigh)  Boolean wheighF(cell, neigh)  Real

74. Example: neighborhood to simulate rain -- Creates a 3x3 Neighborhood based on the cell "slope" -- only lower neighbors are considered create3x3Neighborhood( csQ, function(cell,neigh) return neigh.altimetry < cell.altimetry end, function(cell, neigh) return (cell.altimetry - neigh.altimetry)/ (cell.altimetry + neigh.altimetry) end, "slope" );

77. The mixed pixel problem How can you transform from vectors to cell attributes?

78. Fill the attributes of the cell spaces For each data type to be transformed, there are appropriate operations

79. Using “FillCell” plugin to build Cell Spaces 1. Install the FillCell plugin: Copy the file "celulas.dll" to the directory "C: \ Program Files \ TerraView3.2.0 \ plugins". 2. Build the cell space with the desired resolution

80.
