5.4.4 Simulation scheduler
The simulation scheduler is a java application that is continuously running and reads the
experiments table in the database to check whether there is an experiment that has not been
executed yet. As soon as it finds an experiment that has not been executed, it will simply spawn
the simulation model with the appropriate sequence and scenario ID.
The simulation scheduler consists of 3 classes:
• Dataservice: to read the database table containing the experiments
• Scheduler: the main class that runs the program that will check the table regularly
• Tunnel: a helper class to start a SSH tunnel programmatically
