Detailed Description

a calendar queue event scheduler

Introspection did not find any typical Config paths.

This event scheduler is a direct implementation of the algorithm known as a calendar queue, first published in 1988 in "Calendar Queues: A Fast O(1) Priority Queue Implementation for the Simulation Event Set Problem" by Randy Brown. There are many refinements published later but this class implements the original algorithm (to the best of my knowledge).

Note: This queue is much slower than I expected (much slower than the std::map queue) and this seems to be because the original resizing policy is horribly bad. This is most likely the reason why there have been so many variations published which all slightly tweak the resizing heuristics to obtain a better distribution of events across buckets.

No Attributes are defined for this type.
No TraceSources are defined for this type.
Size of this type is 88 bytes (on a 64-bit architecture).
