I appreciate any and all efforts to help improve this source---I am actually in the process of refining and adapting it for my doctoral dissertation. Please note that the repository is structured as follows:
- chapterxx - main chapter directory.
- chapterxx/plots - houses all plot source and output files
- chapterxx/data - houses input data feeds for plots
- chapterxx/tables - houses tables
- chapterxx/code - houses code snippets
- chapterxxfigures - houses figures
You can build the manuscript by following the series of steps below.
Plots only exist in Evaluation chapter (chapter07/plots); so issue commands below. Note that this might take a bit of time... ~7min on an Intel CORE i3, dual core with 4GM RAM.
cd chapter07/plots
for plot in plot*Rnw; do R CMD Sweave $plot; donemakeindex -s phiri-thesis.ist -t phiri-thesis.glg -o phiri-thesis.gls phiri-thesis.glo
Issue command below; the resulting index look and feel styling is defined in *.ist file
makeindex -s phiri-thesis-idx.ist phiri-thesis.idx
Unfortunately, pdflatex will NOT work since manuscript is integrated with PSTricks---all block diagrams were exported as PGF Macros using LaTeXDraw
In addition, you might have to run latex twice---before and after running biber
latex phiri-thesis.tex
biber phiri-thesis
latex phiri-thesis.tex
dvipdf phiri-thesis.dvi
dvips -P pdf G0 -t a4 phiri-thesis.dvi
