Crate odem_rs_sync 

This part of the ODEM-rs simulation framework deals with synchronization and communication structures for the communication between Agent and Job.

The provided synchronization structures are generally implemented independently of the simulation domain but do make use of the fact that simulation runs are not distributed across different threads, i.e., they do not implement Sync.

Synchronization is an important aspect of agent-based simulation because it allows continuations to communicate and work cooperatively with each other.

Modules

chain

A module containing a data structure for intrusively linked lists of notifyable objects that is used to construct Chains of Continuations on the stack.

channel

This module contains support for MPMC-channels which synchronize sender and receiver continuations over a message queue.

control

This module contains support for awaiting arbitrary state events in the form of control expressions.

error

A module for sync-specific error types.

facility

This module contains support for a GPSS-like facility.

fork

Provides support for agent-internal parallelism in simulation contexts.

Macros

until

Creates a ControlExpr from a boolean expression, allowing asynchronous code to efficiently await a specific condition.

Structs

Tuple

Newtype wrapping tuples of Subscriber/Publisher and implementing these traits itself.

Traits

Publisher

A trait that allows continuations to subscribe for state changes and be reactivated when they occur.

Subscriber

A trait that allows notification of a state change.

Derive Macros

Publisher

Derives the Publisher-trait for a structure.
