public interface Scenario

extends Clearable

Interface Scenario represents a run of the simulation of a particular ant algorithm. Generally, a scenario is composed by a simulated peer-to-peer network (represented by interface Peernet), plus a set of resources to be inserted in the network and a set of requests to be performed (represented by interface ResourceSet). The scenario is simulated by executing the ant algorithm over the simulated peer-to-peer network by performing the requests. Statistics about the behavior of the system during the run of a scenario may be obtained by setting a Stats object through method setStats().
