Problem Solving with Data Structures using Java: A Multimedia Approach

Chapter 17: Discrete Event Simulation

Chapter Objectives

Story Discrete event simulation

• Simulation time != real time Key ideas:

• A Queue• A Queue is a queue, no matter how implemented.

• Different kinds of random• Straightening time

• Inserting it into the right place• Sorting it afterwards

Building a discrete event simulation• Graphics as the representation, not the real thing: The

Model and the View

Imagine the simulation… There are three Trucks that bring product from the

Factory.• On average, they take 3 days to arrive.• Each truck brings somewhere between 10 and 20 products

—all equally likely. We’ve got five Distributors who pick up product from the

Factory with orders.• Usually they want from 5 to 25 products, all equally likely.

It takes the Distributors an average of 2 days to get back to the market, and an average of 5 days to deliver the products.

Question we might wonder: How much product gets sold like this?

Don’t use a Continuous Simulation We don’t want to wait that number of days in real time. We don’t even care about every day.

• There will certainly be timesteps (days) when nothing happens of interest.

We’re dealing with different probability distributions.• Some uniform, some normally distributed.

Things can get out of synch• A Truck may go back to the factory and get more product

before a Distributor gets back.• A Distributor may have to wait for multiple trucks to fulfill

orders (and other Distributors might end up waiting in line)

We use a Discrete Event Simulation We don’t simulate every moment

continuously. We simulate discrete events.

What’s the difference?No time loop In a discrete event simulation: There is

no time loop.• There are events that are scheduled.• At each run step, the next scheduled event

with the lowest time gets processed.• The current time is then that time, the time that that

event is supposed to occur. Key: We have to keep the list of

scheduled events sorted (in order)

What’s the difference?Agents don’t act() In a discrete event simulations, agents

don’t act().• Instead, they wait for events to occur.• They schedule new events to correspond to

the next thing that they’re going to do. Key: Events get scheduled according to

different probabilities.

What’s the difference?Agents get blocked Agents can’t do everything that they want to do. If they want product (for example) and there isn’t any,

they get blocked.• They can’t schedule any new events until they get

unblocked. Many agents may get blocked awaiting the same

resource.• More than one Distributor may be awaiting arrival of Trucks

Key: We have to keep track of the Distributors waiting in line (in the queue)

Key Ideas Already presented, but now used:

A Queue• A Queue is a queue, no matter how implemented.

Different kinds of random Straightening time

• Inserting it into the right place• Sorting it afterwards

Key idea: Different kinds of random We’ve been dealing with uniform random

distributions up until now, but those are the least likely random distribution in real life.

How can we generate some other distributions, including some that are more realistic?• The classic bell-shaped curve

Generatinga uniformdistribution

import java.util.*; // Need this for Randomimport java.io.*; // For BufferedWriter

public class GenerateUniform { public static void main(String[] args) { Random rng = new Random(); // Random Number Generator BufferedWriter output=null; // file for writing // Try to open the file try { // create a writer output = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("D:/cs1316/uniform.txt")); } catch (Exception ex) { System.out.println("Trouble opening the file."); } // Fill it with 500 numbers between 0.0 and 1.0, uniformly

distributed for (int i=0; i < 500; i++){ try{ output.write("\t"+rng.nextFloat()); output.newLine(); } catch (Exception ex) { System.out.println("Couldn't write the data!"); System.out.println(ex.getMessage()); } } // Close the file try{ output.close();} catch (Exception ex) {System.out.println("Something went wrong closing the file");}}}

By writing out a tab and the integer, we don’t have to do the string conversion.

Generating a Histogram Now we have lots of numbers between 0

and 1. We want to count the number between

• 0.9 and 1.0, • 0.8 and 0.9,• 0.7 and 0.8, and so on.

We need to count them into bins.• Great job for a Map!

HistogramGeneratorimport java.util.*;import java.io.*;

/** * Class to generate a histogram * @author Mark Guzdial * @author Barb Ericson */public class HistogramGenerator { /** the map to hold the values */ private Map<Double,Integer> valueMap = new TreeMap<Double,Integer>();

For a given value (like 0.8), we want a count.

That’s Double->Integer map

/**

* Method to read a set of values from the inputFile and create

* bins based on the array of keys. This will count the number

* of values in each bin. Any value larger than the last key

* will be put in the last bin.

* @param inputFile the file to read from

* @param an array of key values to use

*/

public void countValuesForKeys(String inputFile, double[] keys) {

BufferedReader reader = null;

String line = null;

double doubleValue = 0.0;

boolean found = false;

int lastIndex = keys.length - 1;

// put the keys in the map using a count of 0

for (int i = 0; i < keys.length; i++) {

valueMap.put(keys[i],0);

}

try {

// open the file

reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(inputFile));

// loop reading from the file

while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {

doubleValue = Double.parseDouble(line);

found = false;

for (double key : keys) {

if (doubleValue < key) {

valueMap.put(key,valueMap.get(key) + 1);

found = true;

break;

}

}

if (!found) valueMap.put(keys[lastIndex],

valueMap.get(keys[lastIndex]) + 1);

}

// close the file

reader.close();

} catch (Exception ex) {

System.out.println(ex.getMessage());

ex.printStackTrace();

}

}

If the double value we read is less than this key, increment the count at that key

/**

* Method to read a set of values from the inputFile create even

* bins based on the passed factor. This will count the number

* of values in each bin.

* @param inputFile the file to read from

* @param factor the factor to use to break the values into bins

*/

public void countValues(String inputFile, int factor) {

BufferedReader reader = null;

String line = null;

double doubleValue = 0.0;

double key = 0.0;

int currCount = 0;

try {

// open the file

reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(inputFile));

// loop reading from the file

while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {

doubleValue = Double.parseDouble(line);

doubleValue = doubleValue * factor;

key = Math.ceil(doubleValue) / (double) factor;

if (valueMap.containsKey(key)) {

currCount = valueMap.get(key);

currCount++;

valueMap.put(key,currCount);

}

else {

valueMap.put(key,1);

}

}

// close the file

reader.close();

} catch (Exception ex) {

System.out.println(ex.getMessage());

ex.printStackTrace();

}

}

Now, write the counts to a file for graphing /** * Method to output the keys and values in the histogram * to a file * @param fileName the name of the file to write to */ public void writeFile(String fileName) { BufferedWriter writer = null; double key = 0; int value = 0; Set<Double> keySet = null;

try {

// create the writer

writer = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(fileName));

// get the keys and loop through them

keySet = valueMap.keySet();

Iterator<Double> iterator = keySet.iterator();

while (iterator.hasNext()) {

key = iterator.next();

value = valueMap.get(key);

writer.write(key + "\t" + value);

writer.newLine();

}

// close the writer

writer.close();

} catch (Exception ex) {

System.out.println(ex.getMessage());

ex.printStackTrace();

}

}

Using it

/** * Generate the histogram from the uniform data */ public static void genUniform() { HistogramGenerator histGen = new HistogramGenerator(); double[] keyArray = {0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4,0.5,0.6,0.7,0.8,0.9,1.0}; histGen.countValuesForKeys("C:/dsBook/uniform.txt",keyArray); histGen.writeFile("C:/dsBook/uniformHist.txt"); } /** * Method to generate the normal histogram */ public static void genNormal() { HistogramGenerator histGen = new HistogramGenerator(); double[] keyArray = {-1.0, -0.9, -0.8, -0.7, -0.6, -0.5, -0.4, -0.3, -0.2, -0.1,0.0,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4,0.5,0.6,0.7,0.8,0.9,1.0}; histGen.countValuesForKeys("C:/dsBook/normal.txt",keyArray); histGen.writeFile("C:/dsBook/normalHist.txt"); }

Key idea: Ordering Events by Time Straightening time

• Inserting it into the right place• Sorting it afterwards

We’ll actually do these in reverse order:• We’ll add a new event, then sort it.• Then we’ll insert it into the right place.

Exercising an EventQueue

public class EventQueueExercisor { public static void main(String[] args){ // Make an EventQueue EventQueue queue = new EventQueue(); // Now, stuff it full of events, out of order. SimEvent event = new SimEvent(); event.setTime(5.0); queue.add(event); event = new SimEvent(); event.setTime(2.0); queue.add(event); event = new SimEvent(); event.setTime(7.0); queue.add(event);

event = new SimEvent(); event.setTime(0.5); queue.add(event);

event = new SimEvent(); event.setTime(1.0); queue.add(event);

// Get the events back, hopefull in order! for (int i=0; i < 5; i++) { event = queue.pop(); System.out.println("Popped event

time:"+event.getTime()); } } }

We’re stuffing the EventQueue with events whose times are out of order.

If it works right, should look like this:Welcome to DrJava.> java EventQueueExercisorPopped event time:0.5Popped event time:1.0Popped event time:2.0Popped event time:5.0Popped event time:7.0

Implementing an EventQueueimport java.util.*;

/** * EventQueue * It's called an event "queue," but it's not really. * Instead, it's a list (could be an array, could be a linked list) * that always keeps its elements in time sorted order. * When you get the nextEvent, you KNOW that it's the one * with the lowest time in the EventQueue **/public class EventQueue { private LinkedList elements; /// Constructor public EventQueue(){ elements = new LinkedList(); }

Mostly, it’s a queue public SimEvent peek(){ return (SimEvent) elements.getFirst();} public SimEvent pop(){ SimEvent toReturn = this.peek(); elements.removeFirst(); return toReturn;} public int size(){return elements.size();} public boolean empty(){return this.size()==0;}

Two options for add() /** * Add the event. * The Queue MUST remain in order, from lowest time to

highest. **/ public void add(SimEvent myEvent){ // Option one: Add then sort elements.add(myEvent); this.sort(); //Option two: Insert into order //this.insertInOrder(myEvent); }

There are lots of sorts! Lots of ways to keep things in order.

• Some are faster – best are O(n log n)• Some are slower – they’re always O(n2)• Some are O(n2) in the worst case, but on

average, they’re better than that. We’re going to try an insertion sort

How an insertion sort works Consider the event at some position (1..n) Compare it to all the events before that

position backwards—towards 0.• If the comparison event time is LESS THAN the

considered event time, then shift the comparison event down to make room.

• Wherever we stop, that’s where the considered event goes.

Consider the next event…until done

InsertionSortpublic void sort() {

// For comparing to elements at smaller indices SimEvent considered = null; SimEvent compareEvent = null; // Just for use in loop // Smaller index we're comparing to int compare;

// Start out assuming that position 0 is "sorted" // When position==1, compare elements at indices 0 and 1 // When position==2, compare at indices 0, 1, and 2, etc. for (int position=1; position < elements.size(); position++) { considered = (SimEvent) elements.get(position); // Now, we look at "considered" versus the elements // less than "compare" compare = position;

// While the considered event is greater than the compared event , // it's in the wrong place, so move the elements up one. compareEvent = (SimEvent) elements.get(compare-1); while (compareEvent.getTime() > considered.getTime()) { elements.set(compare,elements.get(compare-1)); compare = compare-1; // If we get to the end of the array, stop if (compare <= 0) { break; } // else get ready for the next time through the loop else { compareEvent = (SimEvent) elements.get(compare-1); } } // Wherever we stopped, this is where "considered" belongs elements.set(compare,considered); } // for all positions 1 to the end } // end of sort()

Sorting is expensive It takes a lot of time to re-sort the event

queue each time. Better option: Put each new event in the

right place as it enters the queue.

Option #2: Put it in the right place /** * Add the event. * The Queue MUST remain in order, from lowest time to

highest. **/ public void add(SimEvent myEvent){ // Option one: Add then sort //elements.add(myEvent); //this.sort(); //Option two: Insert into order this.insertInOrder(myEvent); }

insertInOrder() /** * Put thisEvent into elements, assuming * that it's already in order. **/ public void insertInOrder(SimEvent thisEvent){ SimEvent comparison = null; // Have we inserted yet? boolean inserted = false; for (int i=0; i < elements.size(); i++){ comparison = (SimEvent) elements.get(i);

// Assume elements from 0..i are less than thisEvent // If the element time is GREATER, insert here and // shift the rest down if (thisEvent.getTime() < comparison.getTime()) { //Insert it here inserted = true; elements.add(i,thisEvent); break; // We can stop the search loop } } // end for // Did we get through the list without finding something // greater? Must be greater than any currently there! if (!inserted) { // Insert it at the end elements.addLast(thisEvent);} }

Option #3: Min-Heap So, we don’t really need to sort or insert in order. The critical thing is that each pop() gives us the

smallest time. A min-heap is a kind of binary tree that is complete

and where the value at each node is less than or equal to the values stored in the children nodes.• A complete binary tree has all nodes filled except the last

(bottom/deepest) level, and the bottom is filled left-to-right.

Example Min-Heap

The top value here (the 5) is guaranteed to be the lowest value

Adding a “3”

Add 3 to right

But can’t have 3 below 10!

And can’t have 5 above 3

Final version!

Java’s PriorityQueue does this! The Java class PriorityQueue already

implements a min-heap. Our third option is just to use the

PriorityQueue for the EventQueue.• But now you know what the options are and

how they work.

Finally: A Discrete Event Simulation Now, we can assemble queues, different

kinds of random, and a sorted EventQueue to create a discrete event simulation.

Notice that time 2 never occurs!

What questions we can answer How long do distributors wait?

• Subtract the time that they unblock from the time that they block

How much product sits in the warehouse?• At each time a distributor leaves, figure out how much

is left in the warehouse. How long does the line get at the warehouse?

• At each block, count the size of the queue. Can we move more product by having more

distributors or more trucks?• Try it!

DESimulation: Sets the Stage DESimulation calls setUp to create

agents and schedule the first events. It provides log for writing things out to

the console and a text file. When it run()’s, it processes each event

in the event queue and tells the corresponding agent to process a particular message.

What a DESimulation does: // While we're not yet at the stop time, // and there are more events to process while ((now < stopTime) && (!events.empty())) { topEvent = events.pop(); // Whatever event is next, that time is now now = topEvent.getTime(); // Let the agent now that its event has occurred topAgent = topEvent.getAgent(); topAgent.processEvent(topEvent.getMessage()); // repaint the world to show the movement // IF there is a world if (world != null) { world.repaint();} // Do the end of step processing this.endStep((int) now); }

As long as there are events in the queue, and we’re not at the stopTime:

Grab an event.

Make it’s time “now”

Process the event.

What’s an Event (SimEvent)?/** * SimulationEvent (SimEvent) -- an event that occurs in a simulation, * like a truck arriving at a factory, or a salesperson leaving the * market **/public class SimEvent{ /// Fields /// /** When does this event occur? */ public double time; /** To whom does it occur? Who should be informed when it occurred? */ public DEAgent whom; /** What is the event? We'll use integers to represent the meaning * of the event -- the "message" of the event. * Each agent will know the meaning of the integer for themselves. **/ public int message;

It’s a time, an Agent, and an integer that the Agent will understand as a message

DEAgent: Process events, block if needed DEAgents define the constants for messages:

What will be the main events for this agent? If the agent needs a resource, it asks to see if

it’s available, and if not, it blocks itself. It will be told to unblock when it’s ready. Agents are responsible for scheduling their

OWN next event!

An Example: A Truck/** * Truck -- delivers product from Factory * to Warehouse. **/public class Truck extends DEAgent { /////// Constants for Messages public static final int FACTORY_ARRIVE = 0; public static final int WAREHOUSE_ARRIVE = 1; ////// Fields ///// /** * Amount of product being carried **/ public int load;

How Trucks start /** * Set up the truck * Start out at the factory **/ public void init(Simulation thisSim){ // Do the default init super.init(thisSim); this.setPenDown(false); // Pen up this.setBodyColor(Color.green); // Let green deliver! // Show the truck at the factory this.moveTo(30,350); // Load up at the factory, and set off for the warehouse load = this.newLoad(); ((DESimulation) thisSim).addEvent( new SimEvent(this,tripTime(),WAREHOUSE_ARRIVE)); }

The truck gets a load, then schedules itself to arrive at the Warehouse.

tripTime() uses the normal distribution /** A trip distance averages 3 days */ public double tripTime(){ double delay = randNumGen.nextGaussian()+3; if (delay < 1) // Must take at least one day {return 1.0+((DESimulation) simulation).getTime();} else {return delay+((DESimulation) simulation).getTime();} }

newLoad() uses uniform /** A new load is between 10 and 20 on a

uniform distribution */ public int newLoad(){ return 10+randNumGen.nextInt(11); }

How a Truck processes Events /** * Process an event. * Default is to do nothing with it. **/ public void processEvent(int message){ switch(message){ case FACTORY_ARRIVE: // Show the truck at the factory ((DESimulation) simulation).log(this.getName()+"\t Arrived at factory"); this.moveTo(30,350); // Load up at the factory, and set off for the warehouse load = this.newLoad(); ((DESimulation) simulation).addEvent( new SimEvent(this,tripTime(),WAREHOUSE_ARRIVE)); break;

Truck Arriving at the Warehouse case WAREHOUSE_ARRIVE: // Show the truck at the warehouse ((DESimulation) simulation).log(this.getName()+"\t Arrived at

warehouse with load \t"+load); this.moveTo(50,50); // Unload product -- takes zero time (unrealistic!) ((FactorySimulation) simulation).getFactory().add(load); load = 0; // Head back to factory ((DESimulation) simulation).addEvent( new SimEvent(this,tripTime(),FACTORY_ARRIVE)); break; }

What Resources do They keep track of what amount they have

available (of whatever the resource is). They keep a queue of agents that are blocked

on this resource. They can add to the resource, or have it consume(d).• When more resource comes in, the head of the queue

gets asked if it’s enough. If so, it can unblock.

How Resources alert agents /** * Add more produced resource. * Is there enough to unblock the first * Agent in the Queue? **/ public void add(int production) { amount = amount + production; if (!blocked.empty()){ // Ask the next Agent in the queue if it can be unblocked DEAgent topOne = (DEAgent) blocked.peek(); // Is it ready to run given this resource? if (topOne.isReady(this)) { // Remove it from the queue topOne = (DEAgent) blocked.pop(); // And tell it it’s unblocked topOne.unblocked(this); } } }

An example blocking agent: Distributor/** * Distributor -- takes orders from Market to Warehouse, * fills them, and returns with product. **/public class Distributor extends DEAgent { /////// Constants for Messages public static final int MARKET_ARRIVE = 0; public static final int MARKET_LEAVE = 1; public static final int WAREHOUSE_ARRIVE = 2; /** AmountOrdered so-far */ int amountOrdered;

Distributors start in the Market public void init(Simulation thisSim){ //First, do the normal stuff super.init(thisSim); this.setPenDown(false); // Pen up this.setBodyColor(Color.blue); // Go Blue! // Show the distributor in the market this.moveTo(600,460); // At far right // Get the orders, and set off for the warehouse amountOrdered = this.newOrders(); ((DESimulation) thisSim).addEvent( new SimEvent(this,tripTime(),WAREHOUSE_ARRIVE)); }

Distributors have 3 events Arrive in Market: Schedule how long it’ll

take to deliver. Leave Market: Schedule arrive at the

Factory Arrive at Warehouse: Is there enough

product available? If not, block and wait for trucks to bring enough product.

Processing Distributor Events /** * Process an event. * Default is to do nothing with it. **/ public void processEvent(int message){ switch(message){ case MARKET_ARRIVE: // Show the distributor at the market, far left ((DESimulation) simulation).log(this.getName()+"\t Arrived at

market"); this.moveTo(210,460); // Schedule time to deliver ((DESimulation) simulation).addEvent( new SimEvent(this,timeToDeliver(),MARKET_LEAVE)); break;

Leaving the Market case MARKET_LEAVE: // Show the distributor at the market, far right ((DESimulation) simulation).log(this.getName()+"\t

Leaving market"); this.moveTo(600,460); // Get the orders, and set off for the warehouse amountOrdered = this.newOrders(); ((DESimulation) simulation).addEvent( new

SimEvent(this,tripTime(),WAREHOUSE_ARRIVE)); break;

Arriving at the Warehouse case WAREHOUSE_ARRIVE: // Show the distributor at the warehouse ((DESimulation) simulation).log(this.getName()+"\t Arrived at warehouse"); this.moveTo(600,50); // Is there enough product available? FactoryProduct factory = ((FactorySimulation) simulation).getFactory(); if (factory.amountAvailable() >= amountOrdered) { // Consume the resource for the orders factory.consume(amountOrdered); // Zero time to load? ((DESimulation) simulation).log(this.getName()+"\t Gathered product for orders

of \t"+amountOrdered); // Schedule myself to arrive at the Market ((DESimulation) simulation).addEvent( new SimEvent(this,tripTime(),MARKET_ARRIVE)); } else {// We have to wait until more product arrives!

The Master Data Structure List:We use almost everything here! Queues: For storing the agents waiting in

line. EventQueues: For storing the events

scheduled to occur. LinkedList: For storing all the agents.

Thin-line between data and program What happens in a computation is about an

interaction between the program and the data.• Sometimes the data ‘tells’ the computer what to

do, like the operations in the branches of the scene graph.

Just seeing the source code doesn’t tell you what’s going to happen.• Data is important, and data can specify behavior.
