Attribute Detail (defined in this component only)
alwaysUseIndexedSearch
When this flag is set to true, the simulator always uses indexed search for selecting events, which permits a better performance when the state space is partitioned based on the number of agents and queue size. However, if the state space is not partitioned, the simulator specialized for a single call type and agent group, not using indexed search, is usually more efficient.
Type:
xsd:boolean
Use:
optional
Default:
"false"
Defined:
locally, within (this) ccapp:CTMCRepSimParams complexType
<xsd:attribute default="false" name="alwaysUseIndexedSearch" type="xsd:boolean">
</xsd:attribute>

keepQueues
Determines if the transition numbers of queued contacts are kept in memory during the simulation. This ie necessary to estimate some performance measures such as the service level.
Type:
xsd:boolean
Use:
optional
Default:
"true"
Defined:
locally, within (this) ccapp:CTMCRepSimParams complexType
<xsd:attribute default="true" name="keepQueues" type="xsd:boolean">
</xsd:attribute>

timeHorizon
Determines the time horizon of the simulation, if a single period is simulated. If this attribute is omitted, the period duration set in the model is used as the time horizon. This attribute is ignored for multi-periods simulations.

Content Element Detail (defined in this component only)
maxNumAgents
Determines, for each agent group, the maximal number of agents used when comparing different staffing vectors using simulation. If this element is omitted, the maximal number of agents is obtained from the model's staffing vector. As with minNumAgents, the size of the given array must be 1 or I.
Type:

<xsd:element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="maxNumAgents" type="ssj:nonNegativeIntList">
</xsd:element>

minNumAgents
Determines, for each agent group, the minimal number of agents used when comparing different staffing vectors using simulation. If this element is omitted, the minimal number of agents is 0. If this element contains a single value, the given minimal number of agents is used for each group. Otherwise, the list must contain I element, where I is the number of agent groups in the model.
Type:
ssj:nonNegativeIntList, simple content

XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see schema source)
<xsd:element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="minNumAgents" type="ssj:nonNegativeIntList">
</xsd:element>

thresholds
Determines a matrix of thresholds on the number of agents, and queue size, which is used to speed up simulation. When the number of busy agents and queue size is below such a vector of thresholds, a lower transition rate can be used instead of the regular rate, and several successive self jumps can often be generated from a single random number. Each row of the given matrix must correspond to a vector giving the threshold on the number of agents in each group, and on the queue size, for state space partitioning in order to use adaptive transition rate. The first I columns of the matrix concern agent groups, while the last column concerns the waiting queue.

If element i=0,...,I-1 for a given vector of thresholds is greater than the maximal number of agents in group i given by the maxNumAgents element, or if element I is greater than the queue capacity set in the model, the vector is ignored. Moreover, a vector with thresholds corresponding to the maximal number of agents and queue capacity is added if not given by the user.

If this element is omitted, no state space partitioning is used. If a single occurrence of this element is present, the given matrix of thresholds is used for all main periods of the model. Otherwise, there must be P occurrences of this element, one for each main period. Occurrence p for p=0,...,P-1 is then used for main period p.
