public class MatrixToSequence
extends SDFTransformer

This actor unbundles a matrix into a sequence of output tokens. On each firing, it writes the elements of the matrix to the output as a sequence of output tokens. It outputs the contents of the first row first, then the second row, etc. If the enforceMatrixSize parameter true, then if an input matrix does not match rows and columns parameters, then the fire() method will throw an exception. This feature is important in domains, such as SDF, that do static scheduling based on production and consumption rates. For other domains, such as DE and PN, the enforceMatrixSize parameter can be set to false, in which case the rows and columns parameters will be ignored. This actor is polymorphic. It can accept any matrix input and the output will have the type of the elements of the matrix.

Field Detail

rows

public Parameter rows
The number of rows in the input. This is an integer that defaults to 1.


columns

public Parameter columns
The number of columns in the input. This is an integer that defaults to 1.


enforceMatrixSize

public Parameter enforceMatrixSize
If true, then enforce the rows and columns parameters by throwing an exception if it is violated. This is a boolean that defaults to true.

Constructor Detail

MatrixToSequence

public MatrixToSequence(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

attributeChanged

public void attributeChanged(Attribute attribute)
                      throws IllegalActionException
Ensure that the rows and columns parameters are both positive.

Overrides:
attributeChanged in class NamedObj
Parameters:
attribute - The attribute that has changed.
Throws:
IllegalActionException - If the parameters are out of range.

clone

public java.lang.Object clone(Workspace workspace)
                       throws java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException
Clone the actor into the specified workspace. This calls the base class and then sets the type constraints.

Overrides:
clone in class AtomicActor
Parameters:
workspace - The workspace for the new object.
Returns:
A new actor.
Throws:
java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException - If a derived class has an attribute that cannot be cloned.

fire

public void fire()
          throws IllegalActionException
Consume the input and produce the output sequence. If there is no input token, do nothing.

Specified by:
fire in interface Executable
Overrides:
fire in class AtomicActor
Throws:
IllegalActionException - If not enough tokens are available.
