public abstract class AbstractAlgorithm
extends java.lang.Object
implements Algorithm

An Abstract algorithm class that should be useful for most algorithms. Contains two pipelines: One pipeline for initialization. One pipeline for looping.

Method Summary

Pipeline	getInitPipeline()
Pipeline	getLoopPipeline()
abstract void	init() Initializing the algorithm
abstract void	run(int steps) Run for the specified number of steps
void	setInitPipeline(Pipeline init)
void	setLoopPipeline(Pipeline loop)
abstract void	step() Step the algorithm once
