TWBatching Element
This class controls the batching of time weighted variables within the Model.
The batch interval is used to schedule events during a replication and must be the same throughout the replication. If the supplied interval is 0.0, then the method getApproximateBatchInterval() will be used to determine the interval for the replication.
Time-based variables (TimeWeighted) are first discretized based on a batching interval. The default batching interval is based on the value of the initial number of batches. This is by default set to DEFAULT_NUM_TW_BATCHES = 512. These initial batches are then rebatched according to the procedures within BatchStatistic
Use addTimeWeighted(TimeWeighted tw) to add TimeWeighted variables to the batching.

Parameters
the model element
the batching interval, must be greater than 0
a name for the element
Types
Properties
A flag to control whether the model element reacts to after experiment actions.
A flag to control whether the model element reacts to after replication actions.
Returns a list of summary statistics on all TimeWeighted variables. The list is a copy of originals.
This method returns a suggested batching interval based on the length of the run, the warm-up period, and default number of batches.
The priority for the batching events.
Sets the batch interval length. Changing this during a replication has no effect. The batch interval is used to schedule events during a replication and must be the same throughout the replication. If the supplied interval is 0.0, then the method getApproximateBatchInterval() will be used to determine the interval for the replication
A flag to control whether the model element reacts to before experiment actions.
A flag to control whether the model element reacts to before replication actions.
Indicates the current status of the model element for observers of ModelElement.Status
A flag to control whether the model element reacts to initialization actions
Checks if a batching event has been scheduled for this model element
the left traversal count for pre-order traversal of the model element tree
Returns a string representation of the model element and its child model elements. Useful for realizing the model element hierarchy.
A flag to control whether the model element participates in monte carlo actions.
Gets the number of model elements contained by this model elements.
Indicates the previous status of the model element for observers of ModelElement.Status This allows the transition to be noted by observers
A flag to control whether the model element reacts to end replication actions.
the right traversal count for pre-order traversal of the model element tree
The spatial model associated with this model element. By default, each model element uses its parent model element's spatial model unless changed via this property. This changes the spatial model for this model element and no others.
The time interval between TimedUpdate events. The default is zero, indicating no timed update
Specifies whether this model element participates in time update event specified by its parent
Specifies the havingPriority of this model element's timed update event.
The starting number of batches for time weighted batching. Used in approximating a batch interval size
Indicates whether the warm-up action occurred sometime during the simulation for this model element. False indicates that the warm-up action has not occurred
Specifies if this model element will be warmed up when the warmup action occurs for its parent. The warm-up flag indicates whether this model element will be warmed up when its parent warm up event/action occurs. The default value for all model elements is true. A value of true implies that the model element allows its parent's warm up event to call the warm-up action. A value of false implies that the model element does not allow its parent's warm up event to call the warm-up action. False does not necessarily mean that the model element will not be warmed up. It may, through the use of the lengthOfWarmUp property, have its own warm up event and action.
Specifies the priority of this model element's warm up event.
Functions
Adds the supplied TWResponse variable to the batching
This method returns a suggested batching interval based on the length of the replication and warm up length for TimeWeighted variables.
Returns a statistical summary BatchStatistic on the TimeWeighted variable across the observed batches This returns a copy of the summary statistics.
Cancels the timed update event for this model element.
Cancels the warm-up event for this model element.
Checks if this model element or any model element directly above this model element in the hierarchy of model elements all the way until the top Model participates in the warm-up action.
Find the first parent that has its own warm up event this guarantees that all elements below the found model element do not have their own warm-up event. A model element that has its own warm up event also opts out of the warm-up action. If the returned parent is the Model, then all are controlled by the model (unless they opt out). Elements can opt out and not have their own warm-up event. Thus, they have no warm up at all.
Gets the CSV Header for the TimeWeighted
Gets the CSV row for the TimeWeighted
Fills up the supplied StringBuilder carrying a string representation of the model element and its child model elements Useful for realizing the model element hierarchy.
This method returns the planned time for the warm-up for this model element.
Fills a StringBuilder carrying the model element names in the order that they will be initialized
Checks if a warm-up event is scheduled for any model element directly above this model element in the hierarchy of model elements all the way until the top Model.
Checks if current status is the supplied status
Checks if a timed update event has been scheduled for this model element
Checks if a warm-up event has been scheduled for this model element
Returns the value of a 1 millisecond time interval in terms of the base time unit
Removes the supplied TWResponse variable from the batching
Sets the after experiment option of all model elements (children) contained by this model element.
Sets the after replication flag of all model elements (children) contained by this model element.
Sets the before experiment option of all model elements (children) contained by this model element.
