public class Activity extends LayeredNetworkElement
An Activity represents an individual processing step or service operation within a Task in a layered queueing network.

Activities are the fundamental units of work that define what processing happens when a request is served by a task. They encapsulate:

  • Resource demands (CPU time, I/O operations, etc.)
  • Service calls to other tasks (synchronous and asynchronous)
  • Processing logic and execution flow
  • Binding relationships with entries that trigger them

Key characteristics:

  • Host demand: The computational resources required on the processor
  • Service calls: Requests made to other tasks during execution
  • Call ordering: Whether calls are made deterministically or stochastically
  • Entry binding: Which entry point triggers this activity
  • Reply activity: Whether this activity sends replies back to callers

Activities can make both synchronous calls (blocking until response) and asynchronous calls (fire-and-forget) to other task entries. They are connected through ActivityPrecedence relationships to form complex execution graphs.
