public class Average
extends Transformer
implements Rollbackable

Output the average of the inputs after the last time a true token is received at the reset port. One output is produced each time the actor is fired. The inputs and outputs can be any token type that supports addition and division by an integer. The output type is constrained to be the same as the input type. Note that if the input is an integer, then the output is an integer, which may not be what you want. You may need to set the input and output ports to double to force the result to be a double.

Note that the type system will fail to catch some errors. Static type checking may result in a resolved type that does not support addition and division. In this case, a run-time error will occur.

Field Detail

$CHECKPOINT

protected transient Checkpoint $CHECKPOINT

reset

public TypedIOPort reset

The reset port of type BooleanToken. If this input port receives a True token, then the averaging process will be reset.

$RECORD$$CHECKPOINT

protected transient CheckpointRecord $RECORD$$CHECKPOINT

Constructor Detail

Average

public Average(CompositeEntity container,
               java.lang.String name)
        throws NameDuplicationException,
               IllegalActionException

Construct an actor with the given container and name.

Parameters:

container - The container.

name - The name of this actor.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the actor cannot be contained by the proposed container.

NameDuplicationException - If the container already has an actor with this name.

Method Detail

fire

public void fire()
          throws IllegalActionException

Consume at most one token from the input and compute the average of the input tokens so far. Send the result to the output. If there is no input token available, no output will be produced. If there is a true-valued token on the reset input, then the average is reset, and the output will be equal to the input token (if there is one). If the fire method is invoked multiple times in one iteration, then only the input read on the last invocation in the iteration will affect future averages. Inputs that are read earlier in the iteration are forgotten.

Specified by:

fire in interface Executable

Overrides:

fire in class AtomicActor

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If addition or division by an integer are not supported by the supplied tokens.

initialize

public void initialize()
                throws IllegalActionException

Reset the count of inputs.

Specified by:

initialize in interface Initializable

Overrides:

initialize in class AtomicActor

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the parent class throws it.

postfire

public boolean postfire()
                 throws IllegalActionException

Record the most recent input as part of the running average. Do nothing if there is no input.

Specified by:

postfire in interface Executable

Overrides:

postfire in class AtomicActor

Returns:

True if execution can continue into the next iteration.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the base class throws it.

$COMMIT

public void $COMMIT(long timestamp)

Description copied from interface: Rollbackable

Commit changes up to the given timestamp, but not including changes made at timestamp and afterward.

Specified by:

$COMMIT in interface Rollbackable

Parameters:

timestamp - The timestamp.

$RESTORE

public void $RESTORE(long timestamp,
                     boolean trim)

Description copied from interface: Rollbackable

Restore a previous state to all the private fields of this rollbackable object.

Specified by:

$RESTORE in interface Rollbackable

Parameters:

timestamp - The timestamp taken at the time when the previous state was recorded.

trim - Whether to delete the records used for the rollback.

See Also:

Checkpoint.rollback(long, boolean)

$GET$CHECKPOINT

public final Checkpoint $GET$CHECKPOINT()

Description copied from interface: Rollbackable

Get the checkpoint object that monitors this rollbackable object.

Specified by:

$GET$CHECKPOINT in interface Rollbackable

Returns:

The checkpoint object.

$SET$CHECKPOINT

public final java.lang.Object $SET$CHECKPOINT(Checkpoint checkpoint)

Description copied from interface: Rollbackable

Set the checkpoint object of this rollbackable object. A merge operation is performed on the current checkpoint object and the new checkpoint object, so that the two checkpoint objects monitor the same set of objects when this function returns.

Specified by:

$SET$CHECKPOINT in interface Rollbackable

Parameters:

checkpoint - The new checkpoint object.

Returns:

This rollbackable object itself.

Checkpoint.setCheckpoint(Checkpoint)
