Interface Summary
Interface	Description
AbstractSimEntity.Notifier	A functional interface for a notification handler.
AbstractSimEntity.PreNotificationHook	A functional interface for a hook to be called before notifications are sent (i.e., before a state change is advertised).
SimEntity	A simulation entity like `SimJob` or `SimQueue`.
SimEntity.Action	An action for use in `SimEntity.doAfterNotifications(org.javades.jqueues.r5.entity.SimEntity.Action)`.
SimEntityListener	A listener to one or multiple `SimEntity`s.
SimEntityOperation<O extends SimEntityOperation,Req extends SimEntityOperation.Request,Rep extends SimEntityOperation.Reply>	The definition of an operation on a `SimEntity` (or on multiple ones).
SimEntityOperation.Reply<O extends SimEntityOperation,Req extends SimEntityOperation.Request,Rep extends SimEntityOperation.Reply>	A reply from a `SimEntityOperation`.
SimEntityOperation.Request<O extends SimEntityOperation,Req extends SimEntityOperation.Request>	A request for a `SimEntityOperation`.
SimEntitySimpleEventType	A simple representation of a `SimEntityEvent`.

Class Summary
Class	Description
AbstractSimEntity	A partial implementation of a `SimEntity`.
SimEntityEvent	A `SimEvent` for a `SimEntity` (queue, job, or other) operation.
SimEntityEvent.Reset	The (default) `SimEvent` for resetting a `SimEntity`.
SimEntityEvent.Update	The (default) `SimEvent` for updating a `SimEntity`.
SimEntityEventScheduler	A utility class capable of scheduling `SimEntityEvent`s on an event list.
SimEntityOperation.RequestE<O extends SimEntityOperation,Req extends SimEntityOperation.Request>	A request for an operation that requires an entity argument.
SimEntityOperation.Reset	The (default) reset operation on a `SimEntity`.
SimEntityOperation.ResetReply	A reply for the reset operation `SimEntityOperation.Reset`.
SimEntityOperation.ResetRequest	A request for the reset operation `SimEntityOperation.Reset`.
SimEntityOperation.Update	The (default) update operation on a `SimEntity`.
SimEntityOperation.UpdateReply	A reply for the update operation `SimEntityOperation.Update`.
SimEntityOperation.UpdateRequest	A request for the update operation `SimEntityOperation.Update`.
SimEntitySimpleEventType.Member	A member of this interface.

Enum Summary
Enum	Description
SimEntity.UnknownNotificationTypePolicy	Possible courses of action when an unknown notification is to be published.
SimEntity.UnknownOperationPolicy	Possible courses of action when an unknown operation is offered to `SimEntity.doOperation(double, Req)`.

Package org.javades.jqueues.r5.entity Description

A package for simulation of queueing systems.

In the package, we use three important concepts:

Jobs (interface SimJob): a job represents an amount of work to be carried out by one or more queueing systems, abbreviated as queues;
Queues (interface SimQueue): a queue is an abstract waiting line holding jobs to be served by one or more servers associated with the queue;
Entities (interface SimEntity): the common part of jobs and queues (naming, event list, notifications, etc).

The so-called queue discipline determines in what order jobs are served by the server(s).

Notes:

This package depends on the jsimulation package.
This package focuses exclusively on modeling and simulation of the queueing systems themselves; it currently does not feature adequate random-number and stochastic-process generation and only basic statistics (mostly because we believe there are extremely good Java libraries for that already).
This top-level package contains the essential interfaces of a simulation entity, and a partial implementation. The sub-packages contain extensions to the basis entity interfaces (including for jobs and queues), and (concrete) implementations.
