Method Details

getExpectedRecipients

public List<MessageListener> getExpectedRecipients(Message message)

Specified by:

getExpectedRecipients in class Communicator

findNearestNeighbors

public List<Pair<MessageListener,Double>> findNearestNeighbors(HasGridPosition fromAgent)

This calculates the distance between agents based on each agent's knowledge of its location. Instead, you might want to calculate the distance based on what each agent *THINKS* its distance is from other agents. That will require that the calculation uses the fromAgent's internal knowledge rather than the agent data from the simulation.

Parameters:

fromAgent -

Returns:
