public abstract class Worker
extends SimProcess

A Worker represents any kind of human worker who is working at some WorkStation and processing parts (products or goods) there. Worker is derived from SimProcess. Its lifeCycle() must be implemented by the user in order to specify the behavior of the Worker.

Constructor Detail

Worker

public Worker(Model owner,
              java.lang.String name,
              boolean showInTrace)

A standard constructor for a Worker needs a model he belongs to, a name and a flag stating if trace messages of this Worker should be displayed in the trace file.

Parameters:

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

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

showInTrace - boolean : Flag, if trace messages of this Worker should be displayed in the trace file or not.

Method Detail

lifeCycle

public abstract void lifeCycle()
                        throws co.paralleluniverse.fibers.SuspendExecution

Override this method in a subclass of Worker to implement the Workers specific behaviour. It should contain at least something to let this Worker wait in a WorkStation for parts to process them, like
WorkStationXY.cooperate(processing);
This lifeCycle() method starts after a Worker has been created and activated by the scheduler. It describes the behavior of this special Worker when he is acting alone. All action taking place when this Worker (as a master) acts together with other SimProcess es (as slaves) in some process cooperation is described in that special cooperation method of the class Processing.

Specified by:

lifeCycle in class SimProcess

Throws:

co.paralleluniverse.fibers.SuspendExecution
