Cell Tracer

class pypdevs.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
