Interface BehaviourRoleSelector

All Known Implementing Classes:
BehaviourRoleSelectorImpl

public interface BehaviourRoleSelector

BehaviourRoleSelector's Interface is aimed at providing a mechanism to set the role of each node within the overlay network. The node's role can only be determined on behaviour's context. It uses the following several from behaviour properties file:

  1. ~ DEFAULT_FAULTY_NODES: percentatge of faulty nodes within the network.
  2. ~ DEFAULT_MALICIOUS_DISTRIBUTION: type of distribution of the faulty nodes:
    1. ~ BehaviourProperties.UNIFORM: faulty nodes distributed uniformaly along the network.
    2. ~ BehaviourProperties.CHAIN: faulty nodes forming a continous chain of faulty nodes.

                     double percentage,
                     int distribution)
This methods selects malicious nodes from the overlay according to a percentage and distribution of them along the network.

Parameters:
network - Iterator of all ids.
percentage - Percentage of faulty nodes.
distribution - Distribution's type of faulty nodes: chain or uniform.
Returns:
Returns a set with Ids of malicious nodes.
Throws:
java.lang.ClassCastException - if network is not a collection of id's objects.
