aivika-0.7: examples/TimeOut.hs
-- It corresponds to model TimeOut described in document
-- Advanced Features of the SimPy Language
-- [http://heather.cs.ucdavis.edu/~matloff/156/PLN/AdvancedSimPy.pdf].
-- SimPy is available on [http://simpy.sourceforge.net/].
--
-- The model description is as follows.
--
-- Introductory example to illustrate the modeling of "competing
-- events" such as timeouts, especially using the cancelProcess function. A
-- network node sends a message but also sets a timeout period; if the
-- node times out, it assumes the message it had sent was lost, and it
-- will send again. The time to get an acknowledgement for a message is
-- exponentially distributed with mean 1.0, and the timeout period is
-- 0.5. Immediately after receiving an acknowledgement, the node sends
-- out a new message.
--
-- We find the proportion of messages which timeout. The output should
-- be about 0.61.
