Class SimulationAnimation

java.lang.Object

simulation.Simulation

simulation.SimulationAnimation

public class SimulationAnimation
extends Simulation

A class for make a simulation but with a timer to make the simulation slower and repaint a GUI to show the animation. It also allows usert to optionally save the evolution of certain metrics for each iteration.

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
int	getIteration() Returns the number of iteration
void	run() Runs after each time the timer runs out of time
void	run(int paramNumIterations) Runs the whole simulation with the number of iterations indicated in the parameter in a animated simulation repainting the GUI.
void	setMeasurementEvolution(MeasurementEvolution measurement) Sets a reference to the measurement value given in the parameter
void	setObserver(ObserverAnimation observer) Sets the observer for notififying the end of the simulation
void	setSpeed(double speed) Set the speed (iterations/second) translating it to miliseconds of the interval of each iteration.

Field Detail

timer

private javax.swing.Timer timer

Timer for the animation

time_interval

private int time_interval

Waiting time for each iteration in milliseconds

gui

private javax.swing.JFrame gui

Frame for updating after each iteration

iteration

private int iteration

For counting the number of iterations

numIterations

private int numIterations

For nummber of iterations limit

measurement

Constructor Detail

SimulationAnimation

public SimulationAnimation(javax.swing.JFrame paramGui)

Constructor with a GUI

Method Detail

run

public void run(int paramNumIterations)

Runs the whole simulation with the number of iterations indicated in the parameter in a animated simulation repainting the GUI. In case the user has set a measurement evolution, then the measurement values are recorded. The other iterations are performed by the run method without parameters.

Overrides:

run in class Simulation

run

public void run()

Runs after each time the timer runs out of time

getIteration

public int getIteration()

Returns the number of iteration

setSpeed

public void setSpeed(double speed)

Set the speed (iterations/second) translating it to miliseconds of the interval of each iteration.

setMeasurementEvolution

public void setMeasurementEvolution(MeasurementEvolution measurement)

Sets a reference to the measurement value given in the parameter

Parameters:

measurement - Object in which the records will be recorded.

setObserver

public void setObserver(ObserverAnimation observer)

Sets the observer for notififying the end of the simulation
