+Designing object-oriented software is hard, and designing reusable
-<
+object-oriented scientific software is even harder. Absence of
-<
+applying modern software development practices is the bottleneck of
-<
+Scientific Computing community\cite{Wilson2006}. For instance, in
-<
+the last 20 years , there are quite a few MD packages that were
-<
+developed to solve common MD problems and perform robust simulations
-<
+. However, many of the codes are legacy programs that are either
-<
+poorly organized or extremely complex. Usually, these packages were
-<
+contributed by scientists without official computer science
-<
+training. The development of most MD applications are lack of strong
-<
+coordination to enforce design and programming guidelines. Moreover,
-<
+most MD programs also suffer from missing design and implement
-<
+documents which is crucial to the maintenance and extensibility.

+\section{\label{appendixSection:architecture }Architecture}
-+
+Mainly written by \texttt{C/C++} and \texttt{Fortran90}, {\sc OOPSE}
-+
+uses C++ Standard Template Library (STL) and fortran modules as the
-+
+foundation. As an extensive set of the STL and Fortran90 modules,
-+
+{\sc Base Classes} provide generic implementations of mathematical
-+
+objects (e.g., matrices, vectors, polynomials, random number
-+
+generators) and advanced data structures and algorithms(e.g., tuple,
-+
+bitset, generic data, string manipulation). The molecular data
-+
+structures for the representation of atoms, bonds, bends, torsions,
-+
+rigid bodies and molecules \textit{etc} are contained in the {\sc
-+
+Kernel} which is implemented with {\sc Base Classes} and are
-+
+carefully designed to provide maximum extensibility and flexibility.
-+
+The functionality required for applications is provide by the third
-+
+layer which contains Input/Output, Molecular Mechanics and Structure
-+
+modules. Input/Output module not only implements general methods for
-+
+file handling, but also defines a generic force field interface.
-+
+Another important component of Input/Output module is the meta-data
-+
+file parser, which is rewritten using ANother Tool for Language
-+
+Recognition(ANTLR)\cite{Parr1995, Schaps1999} syntax. The Molecular
-+
+Mechanics module consists of energy minimization and a wide
-+
+varieties of integration methods(see Chap.~\ref{chapt:methodology}).
-+
+The structure module contains a flexible and powerful selection
-+
+library which syntax is elaborated in
-+
+Sec.~\ref{appendixSection:syntax}. The top layer is made of the main
-+
+program of the package, \texttt{oopse} and it corresponding parallel
-+
+version \texttt{oopse\_MPI}, as well as other useful utilities, such
-+
+as \texttt{StatProps} (see Sec.~\ref{appendixSection:StaticProps}),
-+
+\texttt{DynamicProps} (see Sec.~\ref{appendixSection:DynamicProps}),
-+
+\texttt{Dump2XYZ} (see Sec.~\ref{appendixSection:Dump2XYZ}),
-+
+\texttt{Hydro} (see Sec.~\ref{appendixSection:hydrodynamics})
-+
+\textit{etc}.

+\section{\label{appendixSection:desginPattern}Design Pattern}
+As one of the latest advanced techniques emerged from
+object-oriented community, design patterns were applied in some of
-<
+the modern scientific software applications, such as JMol, OOPSE
-<
+\cite{Meineke05} and PROTOMOL \cite{Matthey05} \textit{etc}.
->
+the modern scientific software applications, such as JMol, {\sc
->
+OOPSE}\cite{Meineke2005} and PROTOMOL\cite{Matthey2005}
->
+\textit{etc}. The following sections enumerates some of the patterns
->
+used in {\sc OOPSE}.
+\subsection{\label{appendixSection:singleton}Singleton}
-–
+The Singleton pattern ensures that only one instance of a class is
-–
+created. All objects that use an instance of that class use the same
-–
+instance.
-+
+The Singleton pattern not only provides a mechanism to restrict
-+
+instantiation of a class to one object, but also provides a global
-+
+point of access to the object. Currently implemented as a global
-+
+variable, the logging utility which reports error and warning
-+
+messages to the console in {\sc OOPSE} is a good candidate for
-+
+applying the Singleton pattern to avoid the global namespace
-+
+pollution.Although the singleton pattern can be implemented in
-+
+various ways  to account for different aspects of the software
-+
+designs, such as lifespan control \textit{etc}, we only use the
-+
+static data approach in {\sc OOPSE}. IntegratorFactory class is
-+
+declared as
-+
-+
+\begin{lstlisting}[float,caption={[A classic Singleton design pattern implementation(I)] The declaration of of simple Singleton pattern.},label={appendixScheme:singletonDeclaration}]
-+
-+
+class IntegratorFactory {
-+
+public:
-+
+  static IntegratorFactory*
-+
+  getInstance();
-+
+protected:
-+
+  IntegratorFactory();
-+
+private:
-+
+  static IntegratorFactory* instance_;
-+
+};
-+
-+
+\end{lstlisting}
-+
-+
+The corresponding implementation is
-+
-+
+\begin{lstlisting}[float,caption={[A classic implementation of Singleton design pattern (II)] The implementation of simple Singleton pattern.},label={appendixScheme:singletonImplementation}]
-+
-+
+IntegratorFactory::instance_ = NULL;
-+
-+
+IntegratorFactory* getInstance() {
-+
+  if (instance_ == NULL){
-+
+    instance_ = new IntegratorFactory;
-+
+  }
-+
+  return instance_;
-+
+}
-+
-+
+\end{lstlisting}
-+
-+
+Since constructor is declared as protected, a client can not
-+
+instantiate IntegratorFactory directly. Moreover, since the member
-+
+function getInstance serves as the only entry of access to
-+
+IntegratorFactory, this approach fulfills the basic requirement, a
-+
+single instance. Another consequence of this approach is the
-+
+automatic destruction since static data are destroyed upon program
-+
+termination.
-+
+\subsection{\label{appendixSection:factoryMethod}Factory Method}
-–
+The Factory Method pattern is a creational pattern which deals with
-–
+the problem of creating objects without specifying the exact class
-–
+of object that will be created. Factory Method solves this problem
-–
+by defining a separate method for creating the objects, which
-–
+subclasses can then override to specify the derived type of product
-–
+that will be created.
-+
+Categoried as a creational pattern, the Factory Method pattern deals
-+
+with the problem of creating objects without specifying the exact
-+
+class of object that will be created. Factory Method is typically
-+
+implemented by delegating the creation operation to the subclasses.
-+
+Parameterized Factory pattern where factory method (
-+
+createIntegrator member function) creates products based on the
-+
+identifier (see List.~\ref{appendixScheme:factoryDeclaration}). If
-+
+the identifier has been already registered, the factory method will
-+
+invoke the corresponding creator (see List.~\ref{integratorCreator})
-+
+which utilizes the modern C++ template technique to avoid excess
-+
+subclassing.

+\subsection{\label{appendixSection:visitorPattern}Visitor}
-–
+The purpose of the Visitor Pattern is to encapsulate an operation
-–
+that you want to perform on the elements of a data structure. In
-–
+this way, you can change the operation being performed on a
-–
+structure without the need of changing the classes of the elements
-–
+that you are operating on.
-+
+The visitor pattern is designed to decouple the data structure and
-+
+algorithms used upon them by collecting related operation from
-+
+element classes into other visitor classes, which is equivalent to
-+
+adding virtual functions into a set of classes without modifying
-+
+their interfaces. Fig.~\ref{appendixFig:visitorUML} demonstrates the
-+
+structure of Visitor pattern which is used extensively in {\tt
-+
+Dump2XYZ}. In order to convert an OOPSE dump file, a series of
-+
+distinct operations are performed on different StuntDoubles (See the
-+
+class hierarchy in Fig.~\ref{oopseFig:hierarchy} and the declaration
-+
+in List.~\ref{appendixScheme:element}). Since the hierarchies
-+
+remains stable, it is easy to define a visit operation (see
-+
+List.~\ref{appendixScheme:visitor}) for each class of StuntDouble.
-+
+Note that using Composite pattern\cite{Gamma1994}, CompositVisitor
-+
+manages a priority visitor list and handles the execution of every
-+
+visitor in the priority list on different StuntDoubles.

+\section{\label{appendixSection:syntax}Syntax of the Select Command}
-<
+The most general form of the select command is: {\tt select {\it
-<
+expression}}
->
+{\sc OOPSE} provides a powerful selection utility to select
->
+StuntDoubles. The most general form of the select command is:
-+
+{\tt select {\it expression}}.
-+
+This expression represents an arbitrary set of StuntDoubles (Atoms
-<
+or RigidBodies) in {\sc oopse}. Expressions are composed of either
->
+or RigidBodies) in {\sc OOPSE}. Expressions are composed of either
+name expressions, index expressions, predefined sets, user-defined
+expressions, comparison operators, within expressions, or logical
+combinations of the above expression types. Expressions can be
+Users can define arbitrary terms to represent groups of
+StuntDoubles, and then use the define terms in select commands. The
+general form for the define command is: {\bf define {\it term

+some or all of the configurations that are contained within a dump
+file. The most common example of a static property that can be
+computed is the pair distribution function between atoms of type $A$
-<
+and other atoms of type $B$, $g_{AB}(r)$.  StaticProps can also be
-<
+used to compute the density distributions of other molecules in a

+reference frame {\it fixed to the body-fixed reference frame} of a

+selected atom or rigid body.

+There are five seperate radial distribution functions availiable in
+OOPSE. Since every radial distrbution function invlove the

+\end{figure}
-+
+Due to the fact that the selected StuntDoubles from two selections
-+
+may be overlapped, {\tt StaticProps} performs the calculation in
-+
+three stages which are illustrated in
-+
+Fig.~\ref{oopseFig:staticPropsProcess}.

+-{}-sele2} respectively, while $C$ is the number of stuntdobules

+select different types of atoms is already present in the code.
-+
+For large simulations, the trajectory files can sometimes reach
-+
+sizes in excess of several gigabytes. In order to effectively
-+
+analyze that amount of data. In order to prevent a situation where
-+
+the program runs out of memory due to large trajectories,
-+
+\texttt{dynamicProps} will estimate the size of free memory at
-+
+first, and determine the number of frames in each block, which
-+
+allows the operating system to load two blocks of data
-+
+simultaneously without swapping. Upon reading two blocks of the
-+
+trajectory, \texttt{dynamicProps} will calculate the time
-+
+correlation within the first block and the cross correlations
-+
+between the two blocks. This second block is then freed and then
-+
+incremented and the process repeated until the end of the
-+
+trajectory. Once the end is reached, the first block is freed then
-+
+incremented, until all frame pairs have been correlated in time.
-+
+This process is illustrated in
-+
+Fig.~\ref{oopseFig:dynamicPropsProcess}.
