Probes

GenericProbe

File: general_blocks/Probes/GenericProbe.sim
Description
GenericProbe - This probe box creates a file containing entries for the data passing through it. The file lists the times when tokens passed through and the contents of the tokens. The box passes tokens through unchanged. The box may be connected to any type of data. Multiple probes may be sent to, or combined in, a given file by naming the same file for each probe. This probe is smart about opening the log file. Although several probes may write to the same file, only the first to open the file actually clears the file for writing. Each probe then opens the file for appending and closes the file on each transaction. (This means you do not have to clear the file before each new simulation; multiple probes share the file properly, and the simulation does not need to run to conclusion to flush and close the file.) This box passes through all tokens.

GenericHyperGraphProbe

File: general_blocks/Probes/GenericHyperGraphProbe.sim
Description
Creates a file containing entries for the data passing through it. The file lists the times when tokens passed through and the contents of the tokens. The box passes tokens through unchanged. The box may be connected to any type of data. The resulting probe file may be plotted with XGRAPH. Multiple probes may be sent to, or combined in, a given file by naming the same file for each probe, but specifying a different Yposition for each probe. When plotting the events with XGRAPH use the -p command-line option to display the events as points which are not connected by lines. The data values or token contents may be viewed by clicking on a given point. The contents are displayed as a hyper-note pop-up. This probe is smart about opening the graph file. Although several probes may write to the same file, only the first to open the file actually clears the file for writing. Each probe then opens the file for appending and closes the file on each token. (This means you do not have to clear the file before each new simulation; multiple probes share the file properly, and the simulation does not need to run to conclusion to flush and close the file.) This box passes through all tokens.

BatchStatisticsProbe_f2_f1


File: general_blocks/Probes/BatchStatisticsProbe_F2-F1.sim
Description
This model accepts a complex data structure containing two real fields, and it keeps statistics on their difference for each time-batch. At the end of each batch-time, it outputs the "Basic_Statistic" structure.
The model will output the basic statistics of the numerical difference between two fields
of the input data structure. The statistics which include maximum, minimum, mean, and
variance of the difference, are collected in separate batches. The batches are fixed - length
(in time) and will all be of equal duration.
