+# Design Doc: Block and Scope
+
+## The Representation of Computation
+
+Both deep learning systems and programming languages help users describe computation procedures.  These systems use various representations of computation:
+
+- Caffe, Torch, and Paddle: sequences of layers.
+- TensorFlow, Caffe2, Mxnet: graphs of operators.
+- PaddlePaddle: nested blocks, like C++ and Java programs.
+
+## Block in Programming Languages and Deep Learning
+
+In programming languages, a block is a pair of curly braces that includes local variables definitions and a sequence of instructions, or operators.
+
+Blocks work with control flow structures like `if`, `else`, and `for`, which have equivalents in deep learning:
+
+| programming languages | PaddlePaddle          |
+|-----------------------|-----------------------|
+| for, while loop       | RNN, WhileOp          |
+| if, if-else, switch   | IfElseOp, SwitchOp    |
+| sequential execution  | a sequence of layers  |
+
+A key difference is that a C++ program describes a one pass computation, whereas a deep learning program describes both the forward and backward passes.
+
+## Stack Frames and the Scope Hierarchy
+
+The existence of the backward makes the execution of a block of traditional programs and PaddlePaddle different to each other:
+
+| programming languages | PaddlePaddle                  |
+|-----------------------|-------------------------------|
+| stack                 | scope hierarchy               |
+| stack frame           | scope                         |
+| push at entering block| push at entering block        |
+| pop at leaving block  | destroy at minibatch completes|
+
+1. In traditional programs:
+
+   - When the execution enters the left curly brace of a block, the runtime pushes a frame into the stack, where it realizes local variables.
+   - After the execution leaves the right curly brace, the runtime pops the frame.
+   - The maximum number of frames in the stack is the maximum depth of nested blocks.
+
+1. In PaddlePaddle
+
+   - When the execution enters a block, PaddlePaddle adds a new scope, where it realizes variables.
+   - PaddlePaddle doesn't pop a scope after the execution of the block because variables therein are to be used by the backward pass.  So it has a stack forest known as a *scope hierarchy*.
+   - The height of the highest tree is the maximum depth of nested blocks.
+   - After the process of a minibatch, PaddlePaddle destroys the scope hierarchy.
+
+## Use Blocks in C++ and PaddlePaddle Programs
+
+Let us consolidate the discussion by presenting some examples.
+
+### Blocks with `if-else` and `IfElseOp`
+
+The following C++ programs shows how blocks are used with the `if-else` structure:
+
+```c++
+int x = 10;
+int y = 20;
+int out;
+bool cond = false;
+if (cond) {
+  int z = x + y;
+  out = softmax(z);
+} else {
+  int z = fc(x);
+  out = z;
+}
+```
+
+An equivalent PaddlePaddle program from the design doc of the [IfElseOp operator](./if_else_op.md) is as follows:
+
+```python
+import paddle as pd
+
+x = var(10)
+y = var(20)
+cond = var(false)
+ie = pd.create_ifelseop(inputs=[x], output_num=1)
+with ie.true_block():
+    x = ie.inputs(true, 0)
+    z = operator.add(x, y)
+    ie.set_output(true, 0, operator.softmax(z))
+with ie.false_block():
+    x = ie.inputs(false, 0)
+    z = layer.fc(x)
+    ie.set_output(true, 0, operator.softmax(z))
+out = b(cond)
+```
+
+In both examples, the left branch computes `softmax(x+y)` and the right branch computes `fc(x)`.
+
+A difference is that variables in the C++ program contain scalar values, whereas those in the PaddlePaddle programs are mini-batches of instances.  The `ie.input(true, 0)` invocation returns instances in the 0-th input, `x`, that corresponds to true values in `cond` as the local variable `x`, where `ie.input(false, 0)` returns instances corresponding to false values.
+
+### Blocks with `for` and `RNNOp`
+
+The following RNN model from the [RNN design doc](./rnn.md)
+
+```python
+x = sequence([10, 20, 30])
+m = var(0)
+W = tensor()
+U = tensor()
+
+rnn = create_rnn(inputs=[input])
+with rnn.stepnet() as net:
+  x = net.set_inputs(0)
+  h = net.add_memory(init=m)
+  fc_out = pd.matmul(W, x)
+  hidden_out = pd.matmul(U, h.pre(n=1))
+  sum = pd.add_two(fc_out, hidden_out)
+  act = pd.sigmoid(sum)
+  h.update(act)                       # update memory with act
+  net.set_outputs(0, act, hidden_out) # two outputs
+
+o1, o2 = rnn()
+print o1, o2
+```
+
+has its equivalent C++ program as follows
+
+```c++
+int* x = {10, 20, 30};
+int m = 0;
+int W = some_value();
+int U = some_other_value();
+
+int mem[sizeof(x) / sizeof(x[0]) + 1];
+int o1[sizeof(x) / sizeof(x[0]) + 1];
+int o2[sizeof(x) / sizeof(x[0]) + 1];
+for (int i = 1; i <= sizeof(x)/sizeof(x[0]); ++i) {
+  int x = x[i-1];
+  if (i == 1) mem[0] = m;
+  int fc_out = W * x;
+  int hidden_out = Y * mem[i-1];
+  int sum = fc_out + hidden_out;
+  int act = sigmoid(sum);
+  mem[i] = act;
+  o1[i] = act;
+  o2[i] = hidden_out;
+}
+
+print_array(o1);
+print_array(o2);
+```
+
+
+## Compilation and Execution
+
+Like TensorFlow programs, a PaddlePaddle program is written in Python.  The first part describes a neural network as a protobuf message, and the rest part executes the message for training or inference.
+
+The generation of this protobuf message is like what a compiler generates a binary executable file.  The execution of the message that the OS executes the binary file.
+
+## The "Binary Executable File Format"
+
+The definition of the protobuf message is as follows:
+
+```protobuf
+message BlockDesc {
+  repeated VarDesc vars = 1;
+  repeated OpDesc ops = 2;
+}
+```
+
+The step net in above RNN example would look like
+
+```
+BlockDesc {
+  vars = {
+    VarDesc {...} // x
+    VarDesc {...} // h
+    VarDesc {...} // fc_out
+    VarDesc {...} // hidden_out
+    VarDesc {...} // sum
+    VarDesc {...} // act
+  }
+  ops = {
+    OpDesc {...} // matmul
+    OpDesc {...} // add_two
+    OpDesc {...} // sigmoid
+  }
+};
+```
+
+Also, the RNN operator in above example is serialized into a protobuf message of type `OpDesc` and would look like:
+
+```
+OpDesc {
+  inputs = {0} // the index of x
+  outputs = {5, 3} // indices of act and hidden_out
+  attrs {
+    "memories" : {1} // the index of h
+    "step_net" : <above step net>
+  }
+};
+```
+
+This `OpDesc` value is in the `ops` field of the `BlockDesc` value representing the global block.
+
+
+## The Compilation of Blocks
+
+During the generation of the Protobuf message, the Block should store VarDesc (the Protobuf message which describes Variable) and OpDesc (the Protobuf message which describes Operator).
+
+VarDesc in a block should have its name scope to avoid local variables affect parent block's name scope.
+Child block's name scopes should inherit the parent's so that OpDesc in child block can reference a VarDesc that stored in parent block. For example
+
+```python
+a = pd.Varaible(shape=[20, 20])
+b = pd.fc(a, params=["fc.w", "fc.b"])
+
+rnn = pd.create_rnn()
+with rnn.stepnet() as net:
+    x = net.set_inputs(a)
+    # reuse fc's parameter
+    fc_without_b = pd.get_variable("fc.w")
+    net.set_outputs(fc_without_b)
+
+out = rnn()
+```
+the method `pd.get_variable` can help retrieve a Variable by a name, a Variable may store in a parent block, but might be retrieved in a child block, so block should have a variable scope that supports inheritance.
+
+In compiler design, the symbol table is a data structure created and maintained by compilers to store information about the occurrence of various entities such as variable names, function names, classes, etc.
+
+To store the definition of variables and operators, we define a C++ class `SymbolTable`, like the one used in compilers.
+
+`SymbolTable` can do the following stuff:
+
+- store the definitions (some names and attributes) of variables and operators,
+- to verify if a variable was declared,
+- to make it possible to implement type checking (offer Protobuf message pointers to `InferShape` handlers).
+
+
+```c++
+// Information in SymbolTable is enough to trace the dependency graph. So maybe
+// the Eval() interface takes a SymbolTable is enough.
+class SymbolTable {
+ public:
+  SymbolTable(SymbolTable* parent) : parent_(parent) {}
+
+  OpDesc* NewOp(const string& name="");
+
+  // TODO determine whether name is generated by python or C++
+  // currently assume that a unique name will be generated by C++ if the
+  // argument name left default.
+  VarDesc* NewVar(const string& name="");
+
+  // find a VarDesc by name, if recursive true, find parent's SymbolTable
+  // recursively.
+  // this interface is introduced to support InferShape, find protobuf messages
+  // of variables and operators, pass pointers into InferShape.
+  // operator
+  //
+  // NOTE maybe some C++ classes such as VarDescBuilder and OpDescBuilder should
+  // be proposed and embedded into pybind to enable python operate on C++ pointers.
+  VarDesc* FindVar(const string& name, bool recursive=true);
+
+  OpDesc* FindOp(const string& name);
+
+  BlockDesc Compile() const;
+
+ private:
+  SymbolTable* parent_;
+
+  map<string, OpDesc> ops_;
+  map<string, VarDesc> vars_;
+};
+```
+
+After all the description of variables and operators is added into SymbolTable,
+the block has enough information to run.
+
+The `Block` class takes a `BlockDesc` as input, and provide `Run` and `InferShape` functions.
+
+
+```c++
+namespace {
+
+class Block : OperatorBase {
+public:
+  Block(const BlockDesc& desc) desc_(desc) {}
+
+  void InferShape(const framework::Scope& scope) const override {
+    if (!symbols_ready_) {
+      CreateVariables(scope);
+      CreateOperators();
+    }
+    // should run InferShape first.
+    for (auto& op : runtime_table_.ops()) {
+      op->InferShape(scope);
+    }
+  }
+
+  void Run(const framework::Scope& scope,
+           const platform::DeviceContext& dev_ctx) const override {
+    PADDLE_ENFORCE(symbols_ready_, "operators and variables should be created first.");
+    for (auto& op : runtime_table_.ops()) {
+      op->Run(scope, dev_ctx);
+    }
+  }
+
+  void CreateVariables(const framework::Scope& scope);
+  void CreateOperators();
+
+  // some other necessary interfaces of NetOp are list below
+  // ...
+
+private:
+  BlockDesc desc_;
+  bool symbols_ready_{false};
+};
+```
+
+## The Execution of Blocks
+
+Block inherits from OperatorBase, which has a Run method.
+Block's Run method will run its operators sequentially.
+
+There is another important interface called `Eval`, which take some arguments called targets, and generate a minimal graph which takes targets as the end points and creates a new Block,
+after `Run`, `Eval` will get the latest value and return the targets.
+
+The definition of Eval is as follows:
+
+```c++
+// clean a block description by targets using the corresponding dependency graph.
+// return a new BlockDesc with minimal number of operators.
+// NOTE not return a Block but the block's description so that this can be distributed
+// to a cluster.
+BlockDesc Prune(const BlockDesc& desc, vector<string> targets);
+
+void Block::Eval(const vector<string>& targets,
+                 const framework::Scope& scope,
+                 const platform::DeviceContext& dev_ctx) {
+  BlockDesc min_desc = Prune(desc_, targets);
+  Block min_block(min_desc);
+  min_block.Run(scope, dev_ctx);
+}
+```

+# RNNOp design
+
+This document is about an RNN operator which requires that instances in a mini-batch have the same length.  We will have a more flexible RNN operator.
+
+## RNN Algorithm Implementation
+
+<p aligh="center">
+<img src="./images/rnn.jpg"/>
+</p>
+
+The above diagram shows an RNN unrolled into a full network.
+
+There are several important concepts:
+
+- *step-net*: the sub-graph to run at each step,
+- *memory*, $h_t$, the state of the current step,
+- *ex-memory*, $h_{t-1}$, the state of the previous step,
+- *initial memory value*, the ex-memory of the first step.
+
+### Step-scope
+
+There could be local variables defined in step-nets.  PaddlePaddle runtime realizes these variables in *step-scopes* -- scopes created for each step.
+
+<p aligh="center">
+<img src="./images/rnn.png"/><br/>
+Figure 2 the RNN's data flow
+</p>
+
+Please be aware that all steps run the same step-net.  Each step
+
+1. creates the step-scope,
+2. realizes local variables, including step-outputs, in the step-scope, and
+3. runs the step-net, which could use these variables.
+
+The RNN operator will compose its output from step outputs in step scopes.
+
+### Memory and Ex-memory
+
+Let's give more details about memory and ex-memory via a simply example:
+
+$$
+h_t = U h_{t-1} + W x_t
+$$,
+
+where $h_t$ and $h_{t-1}$ are the memory and ex-memory of step $t$'s respectively.
+
+In the implementation, we can make an ex-memory variable either "refers to" the memory variable of the previous step,
+or copy the value of the previous memory value to the current ex-memory variable.
+
+### Usage in Python
+
+For more information on Block, please refer to the [design doc](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle/blob/develop/doc/design/block.md).
+
+We can define an RNN's step-net using Block:
+
+```python
+import paddle as pd
+
+X = some_op() # x is some operator's output, and is a LoDTensor
+a = some_op()
+
+# declare parameters
+W = pd.Variable(shape=[20, 30])
+U = pd.Variable(shape=[20, 30])
+
+rnn = pd.create_rnn_op(output_num=1)
+with rnn.stepnet():
+    x = rnn.add_input(X)
+    # declare a memory (rnn's step)
+    h = rnn.add_memory(init=a)
+    # h.pre_state() means previous memory of rnn
+    new_state = pd.add_two( pd.matmul(W, x) + pd.matmul(U, h.pre_state()))
+    # update current memory
+    h.update(new_state)
+    # indicate that h variables in all step scopes should be merged
+    rnn.add_outputs(h)
+
+out = rnn()
+```
+
+Python API functions in above example:
+
+- `rnn.add_input` indicates the parameter is a variable that will be segmented into step-inputs.
+- `rnn.add_memory` creates a variable used as the memory.
+- `rnn.add_outputs` mark the variables that will be concatenated across steps into the RNN output.
+
+### Nested RNN and LoDTensor
+
+An RNN whose step-net includes other RNN operators is known as an *nested RNN*.
+
+For example, we could have a 2-level RNN, where the top level corresponds to paragraphs, and the lower level corresponds to sentences.
+
+The following figure illustrates the feeding of text into the lower level, one sentence each step, and the feeding of step outputs to the top level. The final top level output is about the whole text.
+
+<p aligh="center">
+<img src="./images/2_level_rnn.png"/>
+</p>
+
+```python
+import paddle as pd
+
+W = pd.Variable(shape=[20, 30])
+U = pd.Variable(shape=[20, 30])
+
+W0 = pd.Variable(shape=[20, 30])
+U0 = pd.Variable(shape=[20, 30])
+
+# a is output of some op
+a = some_op()
+
+# chapter_data is a set of 128-dim word vectors
+# the first level of LoD is sentence
+# the second level of LoD is chapter
+chapter_data = pd.Variable(shape=[None, 128], type=pd.lod_tensor, level=2)
+
+def lower_level_rnn(paragraph):
+    '''
+    x: the input
+    '''
+    rnn = pd.create_rnn_op(output_num=1)
+    with rnn.stepnet():
+        sentence = rnn.add_input(paragraph, level=0)
+        h = rnn.add_memory(shape=[20, 30])
+        h.update(
+            pd.matmul(W, sentence) + pd.matmul(U, h.pre_state()))
+        # get the last state as sentence's info
+        rnn.add_outputs(h)
+    return rnn
+
+top_level_rnn = pd.create_rnn_op(output_num=1)
+with top_level_rnn.stepnet():
+    paragraph_data = rnn.add_input(chapter_data, level=1)
+    low_rnn = lower_level_rnn(paragraph_data)
+    paragraph_out = low_rnn()
+
+    h = rnn.add_memory(init=a)
+    h.update(
+        pd.matmul(W0, paragraph_data) + pd.matmul(U0, h.pre_state()))
+    top_level_rnn.add_outputs(h)
+
+# just output the last step
+chapter_out = top_level_rnn(output_all_steps=False)
+```
+
+in above example, the construction of the `top_level_rnn` calls  `lower_level_rnn`.  The input is a LoD Tensor. The top level RNN segments input text data into paragraphs, and the lower level RNN segments each paragraph into sentences.
+
+By default, the `RNNOp` will concatenate the outputs from all the time steps,
+if the `output_all_steps` set to False, it will only output the final time step.

All the Input/Output and Attributes will write into the [OpProto](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle/blob/develop/paddle/framework/framework.proto#L61) , and will be used in client language to create operator. 
+
+- Input/Output.
+  - Input/Output names follow the **CamelCase**. e.g. `X`, `Y`, `Matrix`, `LastAxisInMatrix`. Input/Output much more like Variables, we prefer to meaningful English words. 
+  - If an operator's Input/Output are tensors in math, not match to any meaningful words, input name should starts from `X`. e.g. `X`, `Y`, and output name should starts from `Out`. e.g. `Out`. This rule intends making operators which have few inputs/outputs unified.
+
+- Attribute.
+  - Attribute name follows the **camelCase**. e.g. `x`, `y`, `axis`, `rowwiseMatrix`. Also, attribute name prefers to meaningful English words.
+
+- Comments.
+  - Input/Output/Attr comment follow the format of **(type,default value) usage**, corresponding to which type it can be and how it will be used in the operator. e.g.  Attribute in Accumulator`"gamma" `,`(float, default 1.0) Accumulation multiplier`.
+  - Operator comment format of` R"DOC(your comment here)DOC"`. You should explain the input/output of the operator first. If there is math calculation in this operator, you should write the equation in the comment. e.g. `Out = X + Y`. 
+
+- Order.
+  - Follow the order of Input/Output, then Attribute, then Comments. See the example in best practice.
+
+### Best Practice
+
+Here we give some examples to show how these rules will be used.
+
+- The operator has one input, one output. e.g.`relu`, inputs: `X`, outputs: `Out`. 
+
+- The operator has two input, one output. e.g. `rowwise_add`, inputs : `X`, `Y`, outputs : `Out`.
+
+- The operator contains attribute. e.g. `cosine`, inputs : `X`, `axis`, outputs : `Out`.
+
+  We give a full example of Accumulator Operator.
+
+```c++
+class AccumulateOpMaker : public framework::OpProtoAndCheckerMaker {
+public:
+  AccumulateOpMaker(framework::OpProto *proto,
+                            framework::OpAttrChecker *op_checker)
+    : OpProtoAndCheckerMaker(proto, op_checker) {
+    AddInput("X", "(Tensor) The input tensor that has to be accumulated to the output tensor. 
+    If the output size is not the same as input size, 
+    the output tensor is first reshaped and initialized to zero, and only then, accumulation is done.");
+    AddOutput("Out", "(Tensor) Accumulated output tensor");
+    AddAttr<float>("gamma", "(float, default 1.0) Accumulation multiplier").SetDefault(1.0f);
+    AddComment(R"DOC(
+Accumulate operator accumulates the input tensor to the output tensor. If the
+output tensor already has the right size, we add to it; otherwise, we first
+initialize the output tensor to all zeros, and then do accumulation. Any
+further calls to the operator, given that no one else fiddles with the output
+in the interim, will do simple accumulations.
+Accumulation is done as shown:
+
+Out = 1*X + gamma*Out
+
+where X is the input tensor, Out is the output tensor and gamma is the multiplier
+argument.
+)DOC");
+  }
+};
