public enum NodeType extends Enum<NodeType>
Enumeration of node types available in queueing network models.

Each node type represents a different functional component in a queueing network, with specific behavior for processing, routing, or transforming jobs. Nodes are the fundamental building blocks that are connected to form complete network models.

Node categories include:

  • Service nodes: Queue, Delay - process jobs with service times
  • Routing nodes: Router, Fork, Join - control job flow
  • Source/Sink nodes: Source, Sink - job creation and destruction
  • Special nodes: Cache, ClassSwitch, Logger - specialized functionality
  • Petri net nodes: Place, Transition - for Petri net models

    Enum Constants
    Enum Constant
    Description
    Cache node - implements cache replacement with hit/miss routing
    Class switch node - changes job class based on probabilities
    Delay station - infinite servers with no queueing
    Fork node - splits jobs into parallel tasks
    Join node - synchronizes parallel tasks from fork
    Logger node - records job passage for monitoring
    Place node in Petri net models - holds tokens
    Queue station - finite servers with queueing
    Finite Capacity Region - virtual node representing a blocking region
    Router node - directs jobs without service time
    Sink node - removes completed jobs from the network
    Source node - generates jobs according to arrival process
    Transition node in Petri net models - fires when enabled
