Constructor Detail

SteadyStateSolver

public SteadyStateSolver(MarkovProcess mp)

Builds a Steady State Solver with the given SimpleMarkovProcess.

Parameters:

mp - The Markov Process for which the steady state probabilities are sought.

Method Detail

getSteadyState

public abstract double[] getSteadyState()
                                 throws NotUnichainException

This process should be extended in order to compute the steady State probabilities of the MarkovChain. The user can get information of the SimpleMarkovProcess associated with this solver though the methods getRates(), getGenerator, and getRate(State,State)

Returns:

an array with the Steady state probabilities for the given problem.

Throws:

NotUnichainException
