RunProtelisProgram

class RunProtelisProgram> : Action<Any>

An Action that executes a Protelis program.

Requires the current randomGenerator and environment, a valid ProtelisDevice (device), and the local reaction hosting the computation.

The program can be created using a String (originalProgram), or, alternatively, by providing a ProtelisProgram (program).

retentionTime specifies whether, upon message usage, the received messages should be deleted (assuming a reasonable synchronization among devices) or if they should remain in memory for a specified amount of time. By default, retentionTime is Double.NaN, indicating that messages are deleted upon read.

It is possible to sumulate the loss of messages due to a higher connection distance by providing a RealDistribution (packetLossDistance) mapping distances to the loss probability. By default this feature is disabled.

Functions

asMolecule

fun asMolecule(): Molecule

cloneAction

open override fun cloneAction(node: Node<Any>, reaction: Reaction<Any>): RunProtelisProgram

This method allows to clone this action on a new node. It may result useful to support runtime creation of nodes with the same reaction programming, e.g. for morphogenesis.

equals

open operator override fun equals(other: Any?): Boolean

execute

open override fun execute()

Effectively executes this action.

getContext

open override fun getContext(): Context

getOutboundDependencies

open override fun getOutboundDependencies(): ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for ImmutableListSet<it/unibo/alchemist/model/Dependency>

hashCode

open override fun hashCode(): Int

prepareForComputationalCycle

fun prepareForComputationalCycle()

Resets the computation status (used for dependency management).

toString

open override fun toString(): String
