/**
 * This class represents a descriptor of a neural network.
 * It stores some parameters of the neural network useful 
 * to manage the training and the validation error of the 
 * net without having it loaded in memory.
 * Created for the distributed environment to store the 'state' 
 * of the training of a net without the necessity to load in
 * memory all the nets belonging to a generation, it can be
 * extended to store more parameters for any other future use.
 * 
 * WARNING: This class must be compatible with the SOAP-Serialization
 * mechanism, hence add ONLY public parameters having:
 * - public getter/setter methods
 * - a basic type, like String, int, ... or a SOAP-Serializable interface
