Method

Description

void

decode(Pointer<org.palladiosimulator.solver.models.PCMInstance> pcm)

Start the decoding process.

List<Choice>

getChoices()

Get new choices which might be produced during decoding.

void

grabChoices(List<Choice> notTransformedChoices)

Grab choices which belong to this module (delete them from the list, and save it in the module).

void

nextDecodeStart()

Indicates the start of a new decoding.

void

postProcessing(List<Choice> notTransformedChoices, org.palladiosimulator.solver.models.PCMInstance pcm)

At the end of the decoding this method will be invoked by PerOpteryx.

Method Details
- nextDecodeStart
  
  void nextDecodeStart()
  
  Indicates the start of a new decoding.
- grabChoices
  
  void grabChoices(List<Choice> notTransformedChoices)
  
  Grab choices which belong to this module (delete them from the list, and save it in the module). (Especially iff the choices cannot interpreted by the 'plain' PerOpteryx.)
  
  Parameters:
  
  notTransformedChoices - the list of not transformed choices
- decode
  
  void decode(Pointer<org.palladiosimulator.solver.models.PCMInstance> pcm)
  
  Start the decoding process.
  
  Parameters:
  
  pcm - a pointer to the PCMInstance. You are allowed to create a new one for further work.
- getChoices
  
  List<Choice> getChoices()
  
  Get new choices which might be produced during decoding.
  
  Returns:
  
  a list of new choices
- postProcessing
  
  void postProcessing(List<Choice> notTransformedChoices, org.palladiosimulator.solver.models.PCMInstance pcm)
  
  At the end of the decoding this method will be invoked by PerOpteryx.
  
  Parameters:
  
  notTransformedChoices - the remaining choices
  
  pcm - the final PCMInstance
