Controller -> Local Middle-level coupling basis module.

This module provides the base class for middle-level coupling parameters from controller to local subsystem in distributed optimization.

Classes

ControllerToLocal_MiddleLevelCouplingBasis

Inherits from: LocalController_MiddleLevelCouplingBasis

Holds the coupling parameters from controller to a local subsystem.

It stores the identifier of the neighbor and stores the coupling variables.

Methods

init(self) → None

Initialize the controller -> local middle level coupling basis.

The neighbor identifier is fixed to "C" (the controller).

update_state(self, other_middlelevelcoupling: ControllerToLocal_MiddleLevelCouplingBasis) → None

Update the state of this ControllerToLocal_MiddleLevelCouplingBasis from another instance.

This method is necessary for multiprocessing. When subsystems are executed in parallel processes via Parallel.py, the original objects need to be updated with results from the executed copies. This method preserves the memory address of the object's attributes while updating their values.

Args:

other_middlelevelcoupling: The source instance containing updated values to copy from.

Note on copy operations: - _id (str): No copy.copy() needed - str is immutable in Python. Assigning creates a new binding; the original cannot be modified.
