If you are on or past the phase you want to await, then calling <code>phaser.awaitAdvance()</code> directly is fine.  If you might be on a prior phase, then invoke <code>PhaserUtils.awaitAdvanceForPhase(phaser, phase)</code>.  If in doubt, invoking awaitAdvanceForPhase is safer.

Piping buttercream onto cake

Motivation

Pipelines can increase throughput when processing a stream of data. We will gain additional experience with Phasers by building a software pipeline.

Code To Implement

Required Code

class: CakePipeline.java Java.png
methods: mixBakeAndIceCakes
package: pipeline.cake.studio
source folder: student/src/main/java

method: public static IcedCake[] mixBakeAndIceCakes(Mixer mixer, Oven oven, Icer icer, int cakeCount) Parallel.svg (parallel implementation required)

Design a simple pipeline using Phasers. In order to have a finished cake, you need to first mix the ingredients, then bake the cake, and finally ice it with frosting. Although you only have one tool for each step (one whisk, one oven, and one icing spatula), there's no problem with icing one cake while another is baking in the oven. That's where the parallelism comes in. Answering the above questions should give you all the information you need to set up this method. Remember that this needs to be able work for any number of cakes passed through!

Note that icer.ice() returns an object of IcedCake. Collect all the 'IcedCake's you make, and return them in an array.

Attention niels epting.svg Warning:Do not forget to ensure that all of your tasks (mix, bake, and ice) complete before you return.

Optional Challenge

class: MultiOvenCakePipeline.java Java.png
methods: mixBakeAndIceCakes
package: pipeline.cake.challenge
source folder: student/src/main/java

method: public static IcedCake[] mixBakeAndIceCakes(Mixer mixer, List<Oven> ovens, Icer icer, int cakeCount) Parallel.svg (parallel implementation required)

As we've discussed in class, not all steps of the pipeline always take the same amount of time to complete. In this example, baking a cake in the oven usually takes much longer than simply mixing the ingredients or icing the cake. The Oven is the bottleneck on the performance of this pipeline. One way to further improve the process then is to simply more ovens. This time, build a similar pipeline to what you made earlier, but use all of the Ovens passed to you in order to speed things up. Here's a couple things to take note of:

  • How have the tasks changed? How does this additional oven affect the number of tasks your program will use?
Attention niels epting.svg Alert:
Recall that awaitAdvance(phase)'s returns immediately if the current phase is not the given phase.
It is often better to use PhaserUtils.awaitAdvanceForPhase(phaser, phase).
