Package jline.lang.nodeparam

Class ForkNodeParam

java.lang.Object

jline.lang.NodeParam

jline.lang.nodeparam.ForkNodeParam

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class ForkNodeParam
extends NodeParam

Parameter container for fork nodes in queueing networks.

This class configures fork nodes that split incoming jobs into multiple parallel tasks. Fork nodes are fundamental components in fork-join queueing models where jobs require parallel processing across multiple servers or subsystems before synchronization.

Fork node capabilities:

• Splitting jobs into parallel subtasks with configurable fan-out
• Supporting deterministic and probabilistic splitting
• Enabling parallel processing workflows
• Fork-join network modeling for multi-stage systems

Since:

1.0
