8.6 Example: Researcher using SAM

In this example, a Researcher has already created a log file, this time using FCM on the Router machine. The Researcher now wishes to perform CDF on the Queue size, summed over all the streams (aggregate). The Researcher wishes to view the graph produced, but not save it. Several steps performed by SAM which are identical to the previous example have been omitted.

1. The user has performed the first 9 steps of the above example successfully.
2. The user selects `Queue size' as the data to be analysed from the Data for Analysis list.
3. The user selects `Aggregate' from the Stream Combination list.
4. The user selects `CDF' from the Analysis Type list.
5. The user selects `Graph' from the Output Type list.
6. The user enters the analysis-specific variables (number of bins) and then any output-specific variables (if they wish).
7. A single graph is produced, with a single plot of the CDF of the Queue size for the aggregate (by sum) of all the streams.
8. The user exits the program.
