Difference

public Difference()
Method Detail

execute

public void execute(Graph g)
Description copied from interface: Algorithm
execute the algorithm against the given graph

Specified by:
execute in interface Algorithm
Parameters:
g - graph to be modified

getInputType

public InputDescriptor[] getInputType()
Description copied from interface: Component
The input type describes all the different kinds of graph objects that are utilized (and hence required) by this object. This result is only guaranteed to be fixed if structural parameters are not modified. This is an empty array if there is no input.

Specified by:
getInputType in interface Component
Returns:
InputDescriptor array for this component
See Also:
InputDescriptor

getOutputType

public OutputDescriptor[] getOutputType()
Description copied from interface: Component
The output type describes all the different kinds of graph objects that are created during the execution of this algorithm. The result is only guaranteed to be fixed if structural parameters are not modified. This is an empty array if there is no output.

Specified by:
getOutputType in interface Component
Returns:
OutputDescriptor array for this component
See Also:
OutputDescriptor

getParameter

public Parameter[] getParameter()
Description copied from interface: Component
List of all parameters this component accepts. Each parameter also has a distinct key-name used when initializing the object using the init method. If there are no parameters, null is returned.

Specified by:
getParameter in interface Component
Returns:
read-only array of Parameters

getParameter

public Parameter getParameter(java.lang.String param)
Description copied from interface: Component
Returns the specific parameter identified by its key-name. If no parameter is found with this key-name, null is returned.

Specified by:
getParameter in interface Component
Parameters:
param - key-name of the parameter
Returns:
named parameter

getSettableParameter

public SettableParameter[] getSettableParameter()
Description copied from interface: Component
Returns settable (i.e. editable while running) parameters. If none exist, null is returned.

Specified by:
getSettableParameter in interface Component
Returns:
array of settable parameters

getSettableParameter

public SettableParameter getSettableParameter(java.lang.String param)
Description copied from interface: Component
Return the settable parameter namede by this key-name. If this parameter is not found or is not settable, null is returned.

Specified by:
getSettableParameter in interface Component
Parameters:
param - key-name of the parameter
Returns:
named settable parameter

init

public void init(java.util.Properties map)
Initializes the algorithm using the provided properties map. Parameters are: Input 1: ActorProperty Output 1: ActorProperty

Specified by:
init in interface Component
Parameters:
map - properties to initialize this algorithm
