public class CommunicationEvent
extends Event

A communication event is an event that represents a (unidirectional) communicative act from one model entity to another. It is associated with a message and practically serves as a link between messages and the event scheduler (and thus indirectly the temporal and process model). The execution of a communication event consists of processing the associated message.

Constructor Detail

CommunicationEvent

public CommunicationEvent(Message correspondingMessage,
                          double scheduledForTime,
                          SimulationContainer simulationContainer)
                   throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

A communication event binds a message to the temporal and process model. It schedules the execution of a message for a given time within the simulation container.

Parameters:

correspondingMessage - The message corresponding to the communication event

scheduledForTime - The time at which the execution of the message is scheduled

simulationContainer - The container in which the simulation takes place

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - Gets thrown when the message corresponding to this event is null

Method Detail

getCorrespondingMessage

public Message getCorrespondingMessage()

processEvent

public void processEvent(double systemTime)

Processing the communication event is semantically equivalent to processing the message associated with it

Specified by:

processEvent in class Event

Parameters:

systemTime - The current time of the system for execution
