public class ScenarioBehaviourCreator
extends UsageModelEntity

This class constructs a Scenario Behaviour. It is used to create the 'Scenario Behaviour' object step-by-step, i.e. 'ScenarioBehaviourCreator' objects are of intermediate state.

Constructor Detail

ScenarioBehaviourCreator

public ScenarioBehaviourCreator(UsageModelCreator usgModelCreator)

Instantiates a new scenario behaviour creator.

A ScenarioBehaviour specifies possible sequences of executing services provided by the system.It contains a set of AbstractUserActions, each referencing a predecessor and successor (except the first and last action), thereby forming a sequence of actions.See the AbstractAction documentation for why it is advantageous to model control flow in this way, as the same principle is used in the RDSEFF language.Concrete user actions of the usage model are:- Branch- Loop- EntryLevelSystemCall- Delay- Start- Stop So far, ScenarioBehaviours do not include forks in the user flow (i.e., splitting the flow with an AND semantic), as it is assumed that users always act sequentially. As there are no random variables depending on other variables in the usage model, there are no equivalent actions to GuardedBranchTransitions or CollectionIteratorActions

Parameters:

usgModelCreator - the usage model creator

Method Detail

addToScenarioBehaviour

public ScenarioBehaviourCreator addToScenarioBehaviour(ActionCreator action)

Adds an Abstract User Action to the scenario behaviour.

Concrete User Actions of the scenario behaviour are Branch, Delay, EntryLevelSystemCall, Loop, Start and Stop. Set connected user actions by using ActionCreator.withSuccessor(ActionCreator). If a concrete start or end action is not added manually, it will be added as it's mandatory to the action chain.

Create a new action by using the org.palladiosimulator.generator.fluent.usagemodel.factory, i.e. create.newBranchAction().

Parameters:

action - (or action chain) in the making

Returns:

the scenario behaviour in the making

build

public org.palladiosimulator.pcm.usagemodel.ScenarioBehaviour build()

Description copied from class: Entity

Turns the entity in the making into the finished entity.

Specified by:

build in class Entity

Returns:

the finished entity

withName

public ScenarioBehaviourCreator withName(String name)

Description copied from class: Entity

Defines the unique name of this current entity. Once created entities are referenced by this name. Only entities with a unique name can be fetched from the model.

Overrides:

withName in class Entity

Returns:

this current entity in the making
