Xypron Statistics is a Java library which was developped with supply chain simulation in mind. The normal, the exponential and the gamma distribution have been included. Methods to calculate fill rate and order rate service levels as well as safety factors are provided. The Mersenne Twister algorithm is used to provide high quality random number generation. Some functions for the gamma distribution where adopted from http://www.ssfnet.org/download/ssfnet_raceway-2.0.tar.gz.

The OODT grid services (product and profile services) use CORBA or RMI as their underlying network transport. However, limitations of CORBA and RMI make them inappropriate for large-scale deployments. For one, both are procedural mechanisms, providing a remote interface that resembles a method call. This makes streaming of data from a service impossible, because there are limitations to the sizes of data structures that can be passed over a remote method call. Instead, repeated calls must be made to retrieve each block of a product, making transfer speeds horribly slow compared to HTTP or FTP. (Block-based retrieval of profiles was never implemented, resulting in out of memory conditions for large profile results, which is another problem.) Second, both CORBA and RMI rely on a central name registry. The registry makes an object independent of its network location, enabling a client to call it by name (looking up its last known location in the registry). However, this requires that server objects be able to make outbound network calls to the registry (through any outbound firewall), and that the registry accept those registrations (through any inbound firewall). This required administrative action at institutions hosting server objects and at the institution hosting the registry. Often, these firewall exceptions would change without notice as system adminstrators changed at each location (apparently firewall exceptions are poorly documented everywhere). Further, in the two major deployments of OODT (PDS and EDRN), server objects have almost never moved, nullifying any benefit of the registry. This project, OODT Web Grid Services, avoids the prolems of CORBA and RMI by using HTTP as the transport mechanism for products and profiles. Further, it provides a password-protected mechanism to add new sets of product and profile query handlers, enabling seamless activation of additional capabilities.

Alphatier is a resource management library. It is designed to allow different schedulers to share the resources of a pool of executors in order to execute tasks with those. Read the [detailed documentation](#io.alphatier.pools) below to get an in-depth understanding. ## License Copyright &copy; 2014 [Tobias Sarnowski](mailto:[email protected]), [Willi Schönborn](mailto:[email protected]) Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software for any purpose with or without fee is hereby granted, provided that the above copyright notice and this permission notice appear in all copies.

IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHOR BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER RESULTING FROM LOSS OF USE, DATA OR PROFITS, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER TORTIOUS ACTION, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OR PERFORMANCE OF THIS SOFTWARE. ## Usage The library is written in [Clojure](http://clojure.org/) and is available in the [central Maven repository](https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/io/alphatier/alphatier/): <dependency> <groupId>io.alphatier</groupId> <artifactId>alphatier</artifactId> <version>0.3.0</version> </dependency> The library is written in pure Clojure without [ahead-of-time compilation](http://clojure.org/compilation). This means, that the library does not contain any *.class files. If you work with Clojure, this is not a problem but if you like to use the library from another JVM language (like Java, Scala or Groovy), you can use [Clojure's built-in tools](http://clojure.org/java_interop#Java%20Interop-Calling%20Clojure%20From%20Java) for interoperability or try our Java library: [https://github.com/sarnowski/alphatier-java](https://github.com/sarnowski/alphatier-java) ### Development If you like to change this library, please have a look at the [README](README.md). Development is done via [Github](https://github.com/sarnowski/alphatier).
