Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ AsynchronousProcessor()

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

Initializes a processor.

Parameters

in_arity	The input arity
out_arity	The output arity

Definition at line 70 of file AsynchronousProcessor.java.

Member Function Documentation

◆ compute()

abstract boolean ca.uqac.lif.cep.AsynchronousProcessor.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

◆ getPullableOutput()

Pullable ca.uqac.lif.cep.AsynchronousProcessor.getPullableOutput ( int index )

Returns the Pullable corresponding to the processor's i-th output trace.

Parameters

index The index. Should be between 0 and the processor's output arity - 1 (since indices start at 0).

Returns: The pullable if the index is within the appropriate range, null otherwise.

◆ getPushableInput()

Pushable ca.uqac.lif.cep.AsynchronousProcessor.getPushableInput ( int index )

Returns the Pushable corresponding to the processor's i-th input trace.

Parameters

index The index. Should be between 0 and the processor's input arity - 1 (since indices start at 0).

Returns: The pushable if the index is within the appropriate range. Outside of the range,

◆ reset()

void ca.uqac.lif.cep.AsynchronousProcessor.reset ( )

Resets the processor.

This has for effect of flushing the contents of all input and output event queues. If the processor has an internal state, this should also reset this state to its "initial" settings (whatever that means in your context).
