Package org.palladiosimulator.probeframework.probes

Probes specify which probe type they measure (using metrics such as "current time" or "CPU state/queue size"). In particular, probes know how to measure their type, i.e., they come with a suitable implementation. Once implemented, probes can be placed all over the simulator to steadily probe. This package provides the (widely abstract) type hierarchy for such probes. Probed environments (e.g., a simulator) typically have to create concrete subclasses of appropriate probe types to realize their concrete probe variant (concrete probes depend on the implementation of the instrumented environment). The superclass of all probes is the Probe class.
