Package madkit.kernel

package madkit.kernel

Provides classes that are fundamental to the design of MaDKit applications. This package is the heart of MaDKit. Especially, it contains the agent main classes: Agent and Agent. Agent is not threaded while Agent is. The former is useful to develop simulation applications and the later could be used where you need autonomy of execution.

MaDKit 1.0 , Olivier Gutknecht, Jacques Ferber

Class	Description
Activator	This class defines a tool for scheduling mechanism.
Agent	The super class of all MaDKit agents.
Agent.ReturnCode	This class enumerates all the return codes which could be obtained with essential methods of the Agent and Agent classes.
AgentAddress	This class represents an address an agent can have within the artificial society.
AgentInterruptedException	This exception is thrown when an agent is interrupted by an InterruptedException while executing a task which is able to react to this exception.
AgentLogger	This class defines a Logger specialized for MaDKit agents.
AgentRuntimeException	This Exception is thrown when an agent runtime error occurs.
Community	This class represents a community within the MaDKit kernel.
ConversationID	This class represents the conversation ID to which a message belongs.
DaemonAgent	A Daemon Agent will automatically stop when no other active thread is running in the system.
FXAgentStage	The `FXAgentStage` class extends the JavaFX Stage class to provide a stage that is associated with an `Agent`.
Gatekeeper	This interface is implemented by objects which are used to verify if an agent is allowed to play a certain role in a group.
Group	This class represents a group, containing roles played by agents.
KernelAddress	This class represents a unique identifier for MaDKit kernel.
KernelConfig	The `KernelConfig` class extends `PropertiesConfiguration` to provide additional configuration capabilities specific to the MaDKit kernel.
Madkit	The `Madkit` class is the main entry point for the MaDKit platform.
MadkitClassLoader	The MadkitClassLoader is the class loader used by MaDKit.
Mailbox	This class represents the mailbox of an Agent
Message	The generic MaDKit message class.
Organization	This class is responsible for managing the organization of the artificial society.
Probe	This class defines a watcher's generic probe.
Role	Reifying the notion of Role in AGR.
Scheduler<T extends SimuTimer<?>>	Scheduler is the core agent for defining multi-agent based simulations in MaDKit.
Scheduler.SimulationState	A simulation state.
Watcher	A Watcher is an agent that is designed to be part of a simulation engine to monitor and explore agents' internal properties.
