Detailed Description

Performs a computation on input events to produce output events.

This is the direct descendant of Processor, and probably the one you'll want to inherit from when creating your own processors. While Processor takes care of input and output queues, SynchronousProcessor also implements Pullables and Pushables. These take care of collecting input events, waiting until one new event is received from all input traces before triggering the computation, pulling and buffering events from all outputs when either of the Pullables is being called, etc.

The only thing that is left undefined is what to do when new input events have been received from all input traces. This is the task of abstract method compute(Object[], Queue), which descendants of this class must implement.

In early versions of the library, this class was called SingleProcessor.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ SynchronousProcessor()

ca.uqac.lif.cep.SynchronousProcessor.SynchronousProcessor	(	int	in_arity,
		int	out_arity
	)

Initializes a processor.

Parameters

in_arity	The input arity
out_arity	The output arity

Definition at line 77 of file SynchronousProcessor.java.

Member Function Documentation

◆ compute()

abstract boolean ca.uqac.lif.cep.SynchronousProcessor.compute	(	Object []	inputs,
		Queue< Object[]>	outputs
	)

abstractprotected

Computes one or more output events from its input events.

Parameters

inputs	An array of input events; its length corresponds to the processor's input arity
outputs	A queue of arrays of objects. The processor should push arrays into this queue for every output front it produces. The size of each array should be equal to the processor's output arity, although this is not enforced.

Returns: true if this processor may output other events in the future, false otherwise
