[GridSim-developers] GridSim event timing problem

[Marcus E. <mar...@gm...>]

Dear all,

I found that there is precision issue in the decimal value of clock time
when we schedule a event with delay (clock+delay). For example, if the
clock time is 5.048575999999999 and the delay is 11.0, the event should be
scheduled at 16.048575999999999 (clock+delay = 5.048575999999999 + 11.0 =
16.048575999999999). However, what I found is that the event is scheduled
at 16.048575999999997. This issue seems to the consequence of doing
floating point arithmetic.

I would like to know anyone has come across this issue or aware of this ?

Regards,
Marcus
