public class Replayer extends Distribution
A distribution that replays empirical data values from trace files.

The Replayer distribution reads real-world trace data from files and reproduces the exact sequence of observations. This is essential for trace-driven simulation, workload characterization, and model validation against real data patterns.

Key capabilities:

  • Reading trace data from text files (one value per line)
  • Sequential replay of empirical observations
  • Empirical CDF computation from trace data
  • Statistical moment calculation (mean, variance, skewness)
  • Support for both file paths and direct data arrays

Common applications include reproducing real arrival processes, service time patterns, and validating analytical models against measurements from production systems.
