Method Summary

java.util.List<Plan>	plan(java.util.List<Vehicle> vehicles, TaskSet tasks) Computes the joint plan for several vehicles.
void	setup(Topology topology, TaskDistribution distribution, Agent agent) The setup method is called exactly once, before the simulation starts and before any other method is called.

Method Detail

setup

void setup(Topology topology,
           TaskDistribution distribution,
           Agent agent)

The setup method is called exactly once, before the simulation starts and before any other method is called.

The agent argument allows you to access important information about your agent, most notably:

• Agent.vehicles() the list of vehicles controlled by the agent
• Agent.getTasks() the set of tasks that the agent has accepted but not yet delivered

Parameters:

topology - The topology of the simulation

distribution - The task distribution of the simulation

agent - The properties of the agent

plan

java.util.List<Plan> plan(java.util.List<Vehicle> vehicles,
                          TaskSet tasks)

Computes the joint plan for several vehicles.
The plans for each vehicle are returned as a list, in the same order than the vehicles. The agent can assume that no vehicle is carrying a task.

Parameters:

vehicles - The list of vehicles

tasks - The list of tasks to be handled

Returns:

The plans for each vehicle
