Class LogicalClock

java.lang.Object
  orc.runtime.LogicalClock

public class LogicalClock
extends java.lang.Object

An event queue for site calls to a logical timer (created by MakeTimer). The Orc engine advances all logical clocks whenever there are no other queued tokens to process. Since logical clocks are advanced only by the Orc engine, and calls to such timers are cooperatively executed by the same engine, the logical clock objects do not need to run in a separate thread, (unlike Rtimer), and they do not require synchronization.
