Cell Tracer

class tracers.tracerCell.TracerCell(uid, server, filename, x_size, y_size, multifile)[source]

A tracer for Cell-DEVS style tracing output

__init__(uid, server, filename, x_size, y_size, multifile)[source]

Constructor

Parameters:
  • uid – the UID of this tracer
  • server – the server to make remote calls on
  • filename – filename to save to
  • x_size – the x size of the grid
  • y_size – the y size of the grid
  • multifile – whether or not multiple files should be generated for each timestep
startTracer(recover)[source]

Starts up the tracer

Parameters:recover – whether or not this is a recovery call (so whether or not the file should be appended to)
stopTracer()[source]

Stop the tracer

trace(x, y, time, state)[source]

Save the state of the cell

Parameters:
  • x – the x coordinate of the model, to be used when plotting
  • y – the y coordinate of the model, to be used when plotting
  • time – the time when the model assumed this state
  • state – the actual state to print
traceConfluent(aDEVS)[source]

The trace functionality for Cell DEVS output at a confluent transition

Parameters:aDEVS – the model that transitioned
traceExternal(aDEVS)[source]

The trace functionality for Cell DEVS output at an external transition

Parameters:aDEVS – the model that transitioned
traceInit(aDEVS, t)[source]

The trace functionality for Cell DEVS output at initialisation

Parameters:
  • aDEVS – the model that was initialised
  • t – time at which it should be traced
traceInternal(aDEVS)[source]

The trace functionality for Cell DEVS output at an internal transition

Parameters:aDEVS – the model that transitioned
