MiddleLevelCouplingBasis¶

Source: Distributed_Design_Optimizer/middlelevel/MiddleLevelCouplingBasis.py

Middle-level coupling basis module.

This module provides the base class for middle-level coupling parameters between subsystems in distributed optimization.

Classes¶

MiddleLevelCouplingBasis¶

Inherits from: MiddleLevelCouplingInterface

A MiddleLevelCoupling subclass object holds the coupling parameters between a subsystem and a single neighbor / controller. It stores the identifier of the neighbor and stores the couplingvariables

Methods¶

init(self, id: str) → None

Initialize the middle level coupling basis.

Args:

id: Identifier of the neighboring subsystem.

get_ID(self) → str

Get the identifier of the neighboring subsystem.

Returns:

The neighbor subsystem identifier.

update_state(self, other_middlelevelcoupling: MiddleLevelCouplingBasis) → None

Update the state of this 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.
