public interface ScenarioAnalyzer

extends Clearable

Interface ScenarioAnalyzer represents analyzer object that are invoked at the end of each scenario evaluation. The main task of an analyzer object is to display insightful data aboyt the simulation. Different implementation may display different set of datas; we expect that each type of ant service will be associated with a distinct analyzer.

Method Detail

analyze

public void analyze(Stats stats,
                    Peernet peernet)

Performs an analysis on the state of the simulated P2P network. Depending on the implementation of this interface, the analysis may involve the statistics collected during the run-time evaluation of the system, or the snapshot of the simulated network represented by the Peernet object.

Parameters:

stats - the object used to collect statistics

peernet - the simulated P2P network, whose content can be inspected by accessing the storage objects included in it.
