Multicast Receive Queue

Description

The Multicast Receive Queue block is identical to an Entity Queue block with the Entity arrival source parameter set to Multicast. For information about parameter descriptions, see the documentation for the Entity Queue block.

You specify a Multicast tag for receiving entities. Then the block receives entities with a matching Multicast tag broadcast by the Entity Multicast block. See Overview of Queues and Servers in Discrete-Event Simulation, for more information about using multicast mode to broadcast entities.

Examples

Broadcast Entities Using Entity Multicasting

Send, receive, transport, and multicast entities wirelessly.

• Open Model

M/M/1 Queuing System

An M/M/1 queue is a queuing system that has a Poisson arrival process, an exponential service time distribution, and one server. This example models an M/M/1 queuing system with a single traffic source and infinite storage capacity.

M/D/1 Queuing System

Model a single-queue single-server system that has a Poisson arrival process and a server with constant service time. The queue has an infinite storage capacity. In the notation, the M stands for Markovian; M/D/1 means that the system has a Poisson arrival process, a deterministic service time distribution, and one server.
