    % Source External job arrival node for open queueing networks
    %
    % Source represents an external arrival node that generates jobs for open
    % classes according to specified arrival processes. It serves as the entry
    % point for jobs entering the network from the external environment, with
    % configurable arrival rates and distributions for each job class.
    %
    % @brief External arrival node generating jobs for open queueing networks
    %
    % Key characteristics:
    % - External job generation for open classes
    % - Class-dependent arrival processes
    % - Infinite capacity job source
    % - Configurable inter-arrival time distributions
    % - Integration with network routing
    %
    % Source node features:
    % - Multiple job class support
    % - Flexible arrival process specification
    % - Poisson, MAP, and general arrival processes
    % - Arrival rate configuration per class
    % - Disabled arrival capability for specific classes
    %
    % Source is used for:
    % - Web server client arrivals
    % - Manufacturing job arrivals
    % - Call center customer generation
    % - Network packet injection
    % - Open system workload modeling
    %
    % Example:
    % @code
    % model = Network('WebServer');
    % source = Source(model, 'ClientArrivals');
    % webClass = OpenClass(model, 'WebRequests', 1);
    % source.setArrival(webClass, Exp(2.0)); % Poisson arrivals, rate 2
