Constructor Detail

SpecializedPopluationInitialisationStrategy

public SpecializedPopluationInitialisationStrategy()

Create an instance of SpecializedPopluationInitialisationStrategy.

SpecializedPopluationInitialisationStrategy

public SpecializedPopluationInitialisationStrategy(SpecializedPopluationInitialisationStrategy copy)

Create a copy of the provided instance.

Parameters:

copy - The instance to copy.

Method Detail

getClone

public SpecializedPopluationInitialisationStrategy getClone()

Create a cloned copy of the current object and return it. In general the created copy will be a deep copy of the provided instance. As a result this operation an be quite expensive if used incorrectly.

Specified by:

getClone in interface Cloneable

Specified by:

getClone in class PopulationInitialisationStrategy

Returns:

An exact clone of the current object instance.

Object.clone()

getEntityType

public Entity getEntityType()

Get the current entity type.

Specified by:

getEntityType in class PopulationInitialisationStrategy

Returns:

The entity being used.

initialise

public void initialise(Topology topology,
                       OptimisationProblem problem)

Initialise the Entity collection based on the given Topology and Problem.

Specified by:

initialise in class PopulationInitialisationStrategy

Parameters:

topology - The topology to initialise with Entity objects

problem - The Problem to based the initialisation on

setEntityType

public void setEntityType(Entity entity)

Set the entity type to use.

Specified by:

setEntityType in class PopulationInitialisationStrategy

Parameters:

entity - The entity type to use.
