This model uses the quantity manager concept to model contention for resouces on a network. This contention has an effect on timing, captured by the model.
The FuelMover receives inputs through a network component, the Bus. The Bus has a parameter for the service time, i.e. the time it takes to transfer a message on the network. This service time has an influence on the behavior of the model as messages get delayed.
