Method Detail

compute

public dk.brics.automaton.Automaton compute()

Description copied from interface: Problem

This is the method called by the master threads, and should contain the code that should be computed concurrently.

Specified by:

compute in interface Problem<dk.brics.automaton.Automaton>

Returns:

a data object representing output data from the computation that you might want to read after finished computation. If there is no such output (e.g. results are written to file), just return null.
