it contains __nerv.LayerRepo__, __nerv.ParamRepo__, and __nerv.DAGLayer__(inherits __nerv.Layer__).
###Class hierarchy and their members###
-* __nerv.ParamRepo__ Get parameter object by ID.
- * `table param_table` Contains the mapping of parameter ID to parameter file(__nerv.ChunkFile__)
+####nerv.ParamRepo####
+Get parameter object by ID.
+* `table param_table` Contains the mapping of parameter ID to parameter file(__nerv.ChunkFile__)
* __nerv.LayerRepo__ Get layer object by ID.
- * `table layers` Contains the mapping of layer ID to layer object.
+* `table layers` Contains the mapping of layer ID to layer object.
objects.
-* __nerv.DAGLayer__ inherits __nerv.Layer__.
+####__nerv.DAGLayer__####
+Inherits __nerv.Layer__.
+* `layers`: __table__, a mapping from a layer ID to its "ref". A ref is a structure that contains reference to space allocations and other info of the layer.
+* `inputs`: __table__, a mapping from the inputs ports of the DAG layer to the input ports of the sublayer, the key is the port number, the value is `{ref, port}`.
+* `outputs`:__table__, the counterpart of `inputs`.
+* `parsed_conn`: __table__, a list of parsed connections, each entry is of format `{{ref_from, port_from}, {ref_to, port_to}}`.
+* `queue`: __table__, a list of "ref"s, the propagation of the DAGLayer will follow this order, and back-propagation will follow a reverse order.
+
##Methods##
+
###__nerv.ParamRepo__###
-* __void ParamRepo:\_\_init(table param_files)__
-`param_files` is a list of file names that stores parameters, the newed __ParamRepo__ will read them from file and store the mapping for future fetching.
-* __nerv.Param ParamRepo.get_param(ParamRepo self, string pid, table global_conf)__
-__ParamRepo__ will find the __nerv.ChunkFile__ `pf` that contains parameter of ID `pid` and return `pf:read_chunk(pid, global_conf)`.
+
+####nerv.ParamRepo:\_\_init(param\_files)####
+* Parameters:
+ `param_files`: __table__
+* Description:
+ `param_files` is a list of file names that stores parameters, the newed __ParamRepo__ will read them from file and store the mapping for future fetching.
+
+####nerv.Param ParamRepo.get_param(ParamRepo self, string pid, table global_conf)####
+* Returns:
+ __nerv.Layer__
+* Parameters:

+ `global_conf`: __table__.
+* Description:

###__nerv.LayerRepo__###
-* __void LayerRepo:\_\_init(table layer_spec, ParamRepo param_repo, table global_conf)__
-__LayerRepo__ will construct the layers specified in `layer_spec`. Every entry in the `layer_spec` table should follow the format below:
-```
-layer_spec : {[layer_type1] = llist1, [layer_type2] = llist2, ...}
-llist : {layer1, layer2, ...}
-layer : layerid = {param_config, layer_config}

+* Description:
+ The `layer_conf` should contain `layer_conf.sub_layers` which is a __nerv.LayerRepo__ storing the sub layers of the DAGLayer. It should also contain `layer_conf.connections`, which is a string-to-string mapping table describing the DAG connections. See an example below:
+
+ ```
+ dagL = nerv.DAGLayer("DAGL", global_conf, {["dim_in"] = {input_dim, 2}, ["dim_out"] = {}, ["sub_layers"] = layerRepo,
