public class DStdGenerator
extends Generator

DStdGenerator generates messages according to a renewal point process for which IAT distribution is provided/parsed. If a distribution for the length of a message is provided/parsed it sets the message length in an iid fashion. That is, each time a message is created, the message length is drawn according to the given distribution. A MessageFactory may be provided to create messages other than Message.

If a length distribution is provided, the length of the default Message generated by the MessageFactory is overwritten.

StdGenerator is a very flexible Generator with the following characteristics:

• Messages are generated according to the constant interarrival time.
• The constant interarrival time can be modified with the setInterArrivalTime() method.
• Message length follows an optional discrete distribution. Each time a new message is generated by a MessageFactory, the length is adapted by calling setLength() of the message and passing the new length according to the length distribution.
• If no length distribution is provided, the length of the generated message is not changed. Therefore control of the length remains at the MessageFactory.
• A message factory is required and could either be provided by passing it upon generation of StdGenerator or during the parsing procedure.
• All possible combinations of message factories and distributions are described in the source code.
