public class Output
extends Sim_entity

GridSim Output defines a port through which a simulation entity sends data to the simulated network.

It maintains an event queue to serialize the data-out-flow and delivers to the destination entity. It works along with Input entity to simulate network communication delay. Simultaneous outputs can be modeled by using multiple instances of this class

Constructor Detail

Output

public Output(String name,
              double baudRate)
       throws NullPointerException

Parameters:
name - the name of this object
baudRate - the communication speed
Throws:
NullPointerException - This happens when creating this entity before initializing GridSim package or this entity name is null or empty
Pre Condition:
name != null, baudRate >= 0.0
Post Condition:
$none
