transmission_mode

Syntax

transmission_mode = none | proximity | network | environmental

Description

Condition property, necessary for a transmissible condition, that determines how one agent can transmit the condition to another agent.

The transmission mode determines how one agent can transmit the condition to another agent. Transmissible conditions must have a transmission_mode property. The default is none. The proximity transmission mode means that a transmissible agent can transmit the condition to a susceptible agent when the two agent occupy the same place at the same time. The network transmission mode means that a transmissible agent can transmit the condition to a susceptible agent to which the first agent is connected within an appropriate network. The environmental mode is used when transmission occurs only from the Meta agent to susceptible agents.

Examples

The following sets the transmission mode of the condition, TEST_CONDITION, to proximity:

condition TEST_CONDITION {
    transmission_mode = proximity
    ...
}
