Node Class

The Node class is the class for which an instance exists for each node in a system. A node is a physical workstation participating in a particular application. A node can be a server node or a client node.

One node object exists for each logical workstation connected to the server node workstation. There is one fixed server node and one, none, or many client nodes.

A node represents a workstation that hosts the execution of one or several processes and it contains a dictionary of the processes currently active in the node. A node object is created for each JADE executable program that is running; that is, a workstation that is running two JADE applications has two node objects, or logical workstation connections, to the server.

For details about the constants, properties, and methods defined in the Node class, see "Node Class Constants", "Node Properties", and "Node Methods", in the following subsections.
