  • Sim.request: Request service from a facility
  • Sim.preempt: Preempt the server
  • Sim.release: Release the server for the next token waiting in the queue
• Simulation State and Tracing
  Used to get state of FEL and facilities, or print their contents
  • Sim.state: Get the simulation state at any point in time
• Random Number Generators
  Create random numbers for different probability density functions
  • Sim.random: Uniform Integer
  • Sim.uniform: Uniform Double
