Thanks Kelvin

This looks like a good project, if possible, it would be really interesting to see your finished project report.

A little more details : Project background as attached slide

Difficulty:
1. (Completed)In shipment generation, there is a complex logic in randomizing the shpt , group with bag, Aero container... and too much event in time 0 (or at the same time), at 1st I don know whether the program will trigger which one 1st (i.e. there is 10+ event triggered at the same time but which one will do 1st?? It will have a great effect to the programming!!!)
2. (In progress) Cut off. You can imagine in express service, there will be a cut off time such that after this time all devices must push out their content no matter there is sth still coming to the devices. In this case I'm trying to send message to 500+ objects when their is a cut off time

Speed: Good for normal running with recycle item, very slow in shipment generation (i.e. at the time just b4 truck/flight appear, as the looped logic in the shipment generation)
