Constructor Detail

HeuristicFrameworks

public HeuristicFrameworks(HeuristicClassification theHeuristicClassif,
                           java.util.ArrayList<ModuleHeuristicFactory> theHeuristicModules)

Create a new instance of HeuristicFrameworks.

Parameters:

theHeuristicClassif - the heuristic classifications.

theHeuristicModules - list of heuristic modules.

Method Detail

getFrameworkTypes

public abstract java.util.HashMap<java.lang.String,org.ai_heuristic.model.FactoryInfo> getFrameworkTypes()

Get a list of possible problem-solving frameworks.

Returns:

the list of problem solver frameworks, as FactoryInfo objects.

getBehaviourClasses

public abstract java.util.HashMap<java.lang.String,org.ai_heuristic.model.FactoryInfo> getBehaviourClasses(java.lang.String solverType)

Get a list of default behaviour classes with FactoryInfo descriptions.

Parameters:

solverType - the problem-solving framework, for example, the Hyper-Heuristic requires Information services, or MetaConst.ALL for any service types.

Returns:

a list of appropriate service classes. Key is the class name, value is the info object.
