Class Transportation 
java.lang.Object
desmoj.NamedObject

desmoj.ProcessCoop
desmoj.Transportation
- public class Transportation
- extends ProcessCoop
Transportation is the object representing the process cooperation between a
Transporter process and the goods (products represented by
SimProcesses) he is transporting.
It is intended that that this Transportation is used with the
TransportJunction construct, where a Transporter
( as a master process) is waiting for goods (slave processes) to carry them
around in the manufacturing system. During the Transportation the master is
active and the slaves are passive. The transportation carried out together
is described in the method cooperation, which can be overwritten
by the user to build more complex models. Until now this method only models
the time it takes to transport the goods.
Note: when using the TransportJunction construct the master
(Transporter) will be activated after the transportation is done and
the slaves will be activated after the master (if they have not been
activated during the transportation already).

Field Summary |
private desmoj.dist.RealDist |
transportTimeStream
The random number stream determining the time it takes to transport the goods. |
|
Constructor Summary |
Transportation(Model owner,
java.lang.String name,
RealDist transportTimeStream,
boolean showInTrace)
Constructs a Transportation process where a master (Transporter)
is transporting slaves (SimPorcesses) in a cooperate process. |
|
Method Summary |
protected void |
cooperation(SimProcess master,
SimProcess slave)
The cooperation() method with only one master and one slave
is not needed here. |
protected SimTime |
getTransportTimeSample()
Returns a SimTime object representing the time it takes to
transport the goods with the transporter. |
void |
setTransportTimeStream(RealDist newTransportTimeStream)
Sets the transportTimeStream to a new RealDist random number
stream. |
protected void |
transport(SimProcess master,
SimProcess slave)
The transport() method with only one master and one slave
is not needed here. |
protected void |
transport(SimProcess master,
SimProcess[] slaves)
This method describes the transportation process carried out by the master
process (some kind of Transporter). |

transportTimeStream
private desmoj.dist.RealDist transportTimeStream
- The random number stream determining the time it takes to transport the goods.
Transportation
public Transportation(Model owner,
java.lang.String name,
RealDist transportTimeStream,
boolean showInTrace)
- Constructs a Transportation process where a master (
Transporter)
is transporting slaves (SimPorcesses) in a cooperate process.
The time it takes to transport the goods is determined by the specified
transportTimeStream.
cooperation
protected void cooperation(SimProcess master,
SimProcess slave)
- The
cooperation() method with only one master and one slave
is not needed here. So we pass it to the more general method with an array
of slaves as parameter.
- Specified by:
cooperation in class ProcessCoop
getTransportTimeSample
protected SimTime getTransportTimeSample()
- Returns a
SimTime object representing the time it takes to
transport the goods with the transporter. The time is taken from the given
random number stream transportTimeStream.
setTransportTimeStream
public void setTransportTimeStream(RealDist newTransportTimeStream)
- Sets the transportTimeStream to a new
RealDist random number
stream.
transport
protected void transport(SimProcess master,
SimProcess[] slaves)
- This method describes the transportation process carried out by the master
process (some kind of
Transporter). In this simple case only
the time it takes to transport the goods is taken into consideration.
If the user building the model has to implement a more complex behavior,
he has to overwrite this method in a subclass.
The time it takes to transport the goods is obtained from the method
getTransportTimeSample().
transport
protected void transport(SimProcess master,
SimProcess slave)
- The
transport() method with only one master and one slave
is not needed here. So we pass it to the more general method with an array
of slaves as parameter.
