Module: simpleStorageUnit¶
Executive Summary¶
The SimpleStorageUnit class is a model of storage unit functionality that keeps only one “partition” or buffer that all data is stored in. This module considers:
- Integrated net input data of the attached dataNodes in one partition. 
- The storage unit’s maximum storage capacity as defined by the - storageCapacityattribute.
Integration of the net input data is performed with a simple Euler method for each partition.
\(Data_{stored} = (baudRate) (t_{current} - t_{previous})\)
Module Assumptions and Limitations¶
See Module: dataStorageUnitBase class for inherited assumption and limitations.
Message Connection Descriptions¶
This module only uses the input and output messages of the Module: dataStorageUnitBase base class.
User Guide¶
To set up this module users must create a SimpleStorageUnit instance:
storageUnit = simpleStorageUnit.SimpleStorageUnit()
storageUnit.ModelTag = "storageUnit"
In addition to the variables that must be set for the Module: dataStorageUnitBase base class, this module requires the storageCapacity attribute to be specified.  The total data stored in the storageUnit will be limited to not exceed this capacity value:
storageUnit.storageCapacity = 1E5 # Given in bits
The next step is to attach one or more DataNodeUsageMsgPayload instances to it using the addDataNodeToModel() method:
storageUnit.addDataNodeToModel(dataMsg)
For more information on how to set up and use this module, see the simple data system example scenarioDataDemo.
