Switch container/baremetal/validate/preview/live flows to vol1+vol2 artifacts, keep baremetal in dev validation, and add stable single-book navbar link.
Removes a sentence that summarized the chapter's structure.
This change simplifies the immediate opening, aligning with broader content organization efforts.
Moves the 'Scaling the Machine: From Node to Fleet' section to a more logical position
within the chapter, following the discussion on defining ML systems.
Refines various sentences for improved clarity, conciseness, and a more formal,
impersonal tone. Adds an introductory sentence to better outline the chapter's
structure and movements.
- book/quarto/mlsys/__init__.py: add repo-root sys.path injection so
mlsysim is importable when scripts run from book/quarto/ context
- book/quarto/mlsys/{constants,formulas,formatting,hardware}.py: new
compatibility shims that re-export from mlsysim.core.* and mlsysim.fmt
- mlsysim/viz/__init__.py: remove try/except for dashboard import; use
explicit "import from mlsysim.viz.dashboard" pattern instead
- .codespell-ignore-words.txt: add "covert" (legitimate security term)
- book/tools/scripts/reference_check_log.txt: delete generated artifact
- Various QMD, bib, md files: auto-formatted by pre-commit hooks
(trailing whitespace, bibtex-tidy, pipe table alignment)
Moves the mlsysim package from book/quarto/mlsysim/ to the repo root
so it is importable as a proper top-level package across the codebase.
Key changes:
- mlsysim/fmt.py: new top-level module for all formatting helpers (fmt,
sci, check, md_math, fmt_full, fmt_split, etc.), moved out of viz/
- mlsysim/viz/__init__.py: now exports only plot utilities; dashboard.py
(marimo-only) is no longer wildcard-exported and must be imported
explicitly by marimo labs
- mlsysim/__init__.py: added `from . import fmt` and `from .core import
constants`; removed broken `from .viz import plots as viz` alias
- execute-env.yml: fixed PYTHONPATH from "../../.." to "../.." so
chapters resolve to repo root, not parent of repo
- 51 QMD files: updated `from mlsysim.viz import <fmt-fns>` to
`from mlsysim.fmt import <fmt-fns>`
- book/quarto/mlsys/: legacy shadow package contents cleaned up;
stub __init__.py remains for backward compat
- All Vol1 and Vol2 chapters verified to build with `binder build pdf`
Offset the 2nd bezier control point x from the endpoint x on all four
Node 1 ring arcs so orient="auto" computes a diagonal arrival angle
instead of a straight vertical arrowhead.
- Adds standardized callout-definition blocks with bold term + clear definition
to all Vol.2 chapters (distributed training, inference, network fabrics, etc.)
- Fixes caption_inline_python errors: replaces Python inline refs in table
captions with static text in responsible_engr, appendix_fleet, appendix_reliability,
compute_infrastructure
- Fixes undefined_inline_ref errors: adds missing code fence for PlatformEconomics
class in ops_scale.qmd; converts display math blocks with Python refs to prose
- Fixes render-pattern errors: moves inline Python outside $...$ math delimiters
in conclusion, fleet_orchestration, inference, introduction, network_fabrics,
responsible_ai, security_privacy, sustainable_ai, distributed_training
- Fixes dropcap errors: restructures drop-cap sentences in hw_acceleration and
nn_architectures to not start with cross-references
- Fixes unreferenced-label errors: removes @ prefix from @sec-/@tbl- refs inside
Python comment strings in training, model_compression, ml_systems
- Adds clientA to codespell ignore words (TikZ node label in edge_intelligence)
- Updates mlsys constants, hardware, models, and test_units for Vol.2 calculations
- Updates _quarto.yml and references.bib for two-volume structure
Updates Quarto configurations to reorder, add, and rename appendices across all output formats for both volumes, and includes previously commented chapters in PDF builds.
Encapsulates Python calculation logic and exported variables within dedicated classes across numerous Quarto documents, improving modularity, maintainability, and clarity of in-text references.
Refines MLOps definitions, corrects TCO calculation with distinct inference GPU rates, adjusts distributed training scaling scenarios (e.g., commodity network bandwidth), and clarifies network fabric details (e.g., FEC latency).
Renames Volume II parts from V-VIII to I-IV, updating all corresponding references in the about section, volume introduction, and individual part principle files.
Refines various textual elements across the book for improved conciseness and readability. Cleans up markdown formatting, including removal of unnecessary horizontal rules and empty code blocks. Adjusts footnote placement for better consistency.
Adds new reliability calculation parameters and corrects a tikz diagram rendering issue.
Introduces reusable `pic` definitions for common elements across numerous TikZ diagrams, enhancing modularity and visual consistency. Improves diagram readability through explicit node positioning and refined styling.
Standardizes hardware and model constants in Python code by using specific `mlsys.constants` and dedicated setup classes, improving maintainability and clarity.
Addresses minor LaTeX formatting in math blocks and refines unit-aware calculations.
This commit standardizes percentage formatting across the entire codebase to prevent critical rendering bugs (like the `19250000000000%` effective utilization bug in Vol 2).
Root Cause:
When dividing two Pint Quantities (e.g., `flop/second` by `TFLOPs/second`), Pint creates a mixed unit (`flop/TFLOPs`). The raw `.magnitude` of this fraction is $10^{12}$. When passed to `fmt(x * 100)`, it multiplied that massive magnitude by 100, resulting in an incorrect display.
Fix:
1. Fortified `fmt_percent` and `display_percent` in `mlsys/formatting.py` to defensively strip units using `.m_as('')`. This forces Pint to cancel out the units (e.g., `flop/TFLOPs` becomes `1.0`) *before* extracting the number.
2. Replaced all instances of `fmt(X * 100)` with the fortified `fmt_percent(X)` across Vol 1 and Vol 2.
3. Fixed inline f-strings in `appendix_assumptions.qmd` by moving formatting logic into the Python setup cell as `_str` variables, adhering to the book's standard practice.
Validation:
- Audited all `.magnitude` extractions in the codebase to ensure they are safe (e.g., explicitly converting to dimensionless units first).
- Ran `validate_inline_refs.py` and confirmed no Python variables are trapped inside LaTeX math mode.
- Successfully built full PDFs for both Volume 1 and Volume 2.
- Add missing attributes to FleetFoundations in appendix_fleet.qmd
- Fix regression_testing.png image path in fault_tolerance.qmd
- Add pgfplots package to header-includes.tex for TikZ compatibility
- Fortify fmt_percent in formatting.py to handle Pint Quantities properly, fixing the 19250000000000% display bug
