public class CustomerProcess
extends SimProcess

CustomerProcess is a kind of process representing a customer. He is fetching a certain number of products from an Entrepot to use them up. He is not doing anything special with them and so the products will be collected by the garbage collector. To change this behavior overwrite the method lifeCycle() in a subclass. The CustomerProcess can be viewed as the border of the simulated system, where the products disappear. It is intended to be used in conjunction with the DemandProcess. CustomerProcess has two main parameters to be specified (see the Constructor): The Entrepot where the products are to be fetched from and the number of demanded products.

Constructor Detail

CustomerProcess

public CustomerProcess(Model owner,
                       java.lang.String name,
                       Entrepot supplier,
                       long quantity,
                       boolean showInTrace)

Constructor for a CustomerProcess. The CustomerProcess is fetching a given number of products from the given Entrepot.

Parameters:

owner - desmoj.Model : The model this CustomerProcess is associated to.

name - java.lang.String : The name of this CustomerProcess.

supplier - desmoj.Entrepot : The Entrepot supplying the products this CustomerProcess is buying.

quantity - long : The number of products this CustomerProcess is fetching from the Entrepot.

showInTrace - boolean : Flag, if this CustomerProcess should produce a trace output or not.

Method Detail

lifeCycle

public void lifeCycle()
               throws SuspendExecution

The CustomerProcess is fetching the given number of products from the given Entrepot. As there are not enough products available at the moment this CustomerProcess has to wait in a queue in the Entrepot. The obtained products are consumed (used up), that means all references to them are released and the product Sim-process is activated (as the process is not terminated yet), to end its lifeCycle and terminate by itself. Then the garbage collector can delete it. Therefore the ComplexSimProcess es are disassembled automatically.

Specified by:

lifeCycle in class SimProcess

Throws:
