Generator architecture


Generators create messages and thus represent traffic sources. In order to provide for flexibility, a 3-level architecture is implemented for generation of messages.
At the top level, the so called Generator level, there are classes derived from the abstract class Generator, which are connected to the other components of the simulation model using the port concept. Subclasses of Factory serve the generators at the level in the middle. The bottom level is formed by the different kinds of messages which are generated by the message factories.
