Simulation

initializeSimulation()

Description:

Called to start a simulation. If not already present in the configuration file, creates a new Generator for random events. Generates random events and creates the state of the simulation's world and the initial perceptions for each of the Agents recieved. Returns a list with all initial perceptions.

Parameters:

• number of steps for the simulation
• configuration file for the simulation
• list of agents participating in the simulation

preStep()

Description:

Called before the execution of each step. Activates previously generated random events starting before the next step. Creates perceptions for each of the Agents in the simulation. Returns a list with all perceptions.

Parameters:

• number of next step in the simulation

step()

Description:

Called for the execution of each step. Executes every action in random order. Deactivates previously generated random events ending on this step.

Parameters:

• number of current step in the simulation
• map of (agents, actions) of current step in the simulation
