Description

Tested with: GHC 7.8.3

The module defines the Event monad which is very similar to the Dynamics monad but only now the computation is strongly synchronized with the event queue.

Synopsis

Event Monad

data Event a Source

A value in the Event monad represents a polymorphic time varying function which is strongly synchronized with the event queue.

class EventLift m where Source

A type class to lift the Event computation to other computations.

Methods

liftEvent :: Event a -> m a Source

Lift the specified Event computation to another computation.

Instances

EventLift Event
EventLift Cont
EventLift Process

data EventProcessing Source

Defines how the events are processed.

Constructors

CurrentEvents	either process all earlier and then current events, or raise an error if the current simulation time is less than the actual time of the event queue (safe within the `Event` computation as this is protected by the type system)
EarlierEvents	either process all earlier events not affecting the events at the current simulation time, or raise an error if the current simulation time is less than the actual time of the event queue (safe within the `Event` computation as this is protected by the type system)
CurrentEventsOrFromPast	either process all earlier and then current events, or do nothing if the current simulation time is less than the actual time of the event queue (do not use unless the documentation states the opposite)
EarlierEventsOrFromPast	either process all earlier events, or do nothing if the current simulation time is less than the actual time of the event queue (do not use unless the documentation states the opposite)

Instances

Eq EventProcessing
Ord EventProcessing
Show EventProcessing

runEvent :: Event a -> Dynamics a Source

Run the Event computation in the current simulation time within the Dynamics computation involving all pending CurrentEvents in the processing too.

runEventWith :: EventProcessing -> Event a -> Dynamics a Source

Run the Event computation in the current simulation time within the Dynamics computation specifying what pending events should be involved in the processing.

runEventInStartTime :: Event a -> Simulation a Source

Run the Event computation in the start time involving all pending CurrentEvents in the processing too.

runEventInStopTime :: Event a -> Simulation a Source

Run the Event computation in the stop time involving all pending CurrentEvents in the processing too.

Event Queue

enqueueEvent :: Double -> Event () -> Event () Source

Enqueue the event which must be actuated at the specified time.

enqueueEventWithCancellation :: Double -> Event () -> Event EventCancellation Source

Enqueue the event with an ability to cancel it.

enqueueEventWithTimes :: [Double] -> Event () -> Event () Source

Actuate the event handler in the specified time points.

enqueueEventWithIntegTimes :: Event () -> Event () Source

Actuate the event handler in the integration time points.

yieldEvent :: Event () -> Event () Source

Enqueue the event which must be actuated with the current modeling time but later.

eventQueueCount :: Event Int Source

Return the number of pending events that should be yet actuated.

Cancelling Event

data EventCancellation Source

It allows cancelling the event.

cancelEvent :: EventCancellation -> Event () Source

Cancel the event.

eventCancelled :: EventCancellation -> Event Bool Source

Test whether the event was cancelled.

eventFinished :: EventCancellation -> Event Bool Source

Test whether the event was processed and finished.

Error Handling

catchEvent :: Exception e => Event a -> (e -> Event a) -> Event a Source

Exception handling within Event computations.

finallyEvent :: Event a -> Event b -> Event a Source

A computation with finalization part like the finally function.

throwEvent :: Exception e => e -> Event a Source

Like the standard throw function.

Memoization

memoEvent :: Event a -> Simulation (Event a) Source

Memoize the Event computation, always returning the same value within a simulation run.

memoEventInTime :: Event a -> Simulation (Event a) Source

Memoize the Event computation, always returning the same value in the same modeling time. After the time changes, the value is recalculated by demand.

It is possible to implement this function efficiently, for the Event computation is always synchronized with the event queue which time flows in one direction only. This synchronization is a key difference between the Event and Dynamics computations.

Disposable

newtype DisposableEvent Source

Defines a computation disposing some entity.

Constructors

DisposableEvent
Fields disposeEvent :: Event () Dispose something within the `Event` computation.

Instances

Monoid DisposableEvent

Debugging

traceEvent :: String -> Event a -> Event a Source

Show the debug message with the current simulation time.
