To generate an instance with the JAR:

java -jar ges-instances.jar <config-file> <problem-file-name> <solution-file-name> [<random-seed>]

To generate multiple instances using an instruction file with the JAR:

java -cp ges-instances.jar at.ac.tuwien.dbai.ges.instances.AutoGenerator <config-directory> <instruction-file> <output-directory>

parameter-description.txt

config-file-example.txt

instruction-file-example.txt

(the first line specifies the starting seed, then each line specifies one config file and the number of instances to generate from this file)
