Process interaction

Two different process typologies, P1 and P2:


P1 in the usual process of a G|G|1 system. The entity that arrives to the system needs the services of the server. The second process, P2, represents the process where the entities do no require the services of a server, however the entities suffers a delays.
PI: chronogram
Delay caused by the process interaction: For instance the use of the same resource. Process P2 P1 P1
Arrivals
PI: Event list


To simplify usually two list of activities are used. The activities that must be processed in the actual time, and the activities that must be processed in the future. The structure, however is quite similar to the structure shown in the Event Scheduling paradigm. Is important to remark the strong relation between the entity and the process linked to each entity.
PI:
Simulation model initialization
More activities in the CEC? no Move the activities from the FEC to the CEC si
Move the activities all that we can in its process
Clock update no

2.
Analyze if the simulation engine can run some activity, this depends on the conditions of each activity, and run it until t. When the simulation engine cannot run more activities increment the clock with t.
