```
public boolean canAccept(IDataSource dataSource)
```
    Determines whether this instance can handle the given data source.
    
    Specified by:
    
    canAccept in interface IDataSink
    
    Parameters:
    
    dataSource - The IDataSource to be processed by this instance.
    
    Returns:
    
    false iff the metric of the given data source is incompatible, otherwise true.
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - In case dataSource == null.
    
    IllegalStateException - In case this instance has not been initialized.
