}

A participant in the simulation - either a sever (ECU) or client (tester).

Each node is a pure state machine. It receives messages via handle, produces outbound messages via drain_outbox, and can be ticket for time-based state transitions.

N - max message payload bytes Q - max messages in outbox simultaneously

Required Methods

fn address(&self) -> &NodeAddress

Returns this node’s address on the simulation bus.

fn handle( &mut self, src: &NodeAddress, data: &[u8], now: Instant, ) -> Result<(), Self::Error>

Delivers an inbound message to the node.

fn tick(&mut self, now: Instant) -> Result<(), Self::Error>

Advances the node’s internal state to the given time.

Used to trigger timeouts and retries. Called by the simulation bus on every tick even if no messages were delivered.

fn drain_outbox(&mut self, out: &mut Vec<(NodeAddress, Vec<u8, N>), Q>) -> usize

Drains all pending outbound messages from the node’s outbox.

Return an iterator of (dst, data) pairs. The bus calls this after every handle and tick call to collect and route output.
