TimeTunnel在做消息分发时有这样一个场景:

    A类消息需要做实时分析, 且量很大, 故它的消费者不会只是一台机器, 而是一组机器, 并要求这组中每台机器收到的消息量应该平均的, 即A消息在某个时刻有100条, 若有4台机器消费的话, 最佳的情况每台机器应收到25条.

    这个场景就好比, 一个消息队列, 有多个线程并行消费, 如何保证每个消费线程获取的消息数量一样的.

    解决它的切入点可能有两个:

    这两条思路各有优缺点, 要视系统在时间和空间上的取舍而定. TimeTunnel 选择了第一种方式, 实现分了三步:

领域对象

消费进展(Track)

    记录每个线程的当前消费状态.

同步误差范围(Range)

    任意时刻可容忍的消费线程间消息数量的正负差距, 这个范围直接影响消费的效率, 范围越小则各个消费越均衡, 但同步牺牲了性能.

协调者(Coordinator)

    根据每个消费线程的消费进展, 调控消费线程是活动还是等待.

01 /**
02  * {@link Coordinator} balance movings of {@link Track}s.
03  * 
04  * @author jushi
05  * @created 2010-12-14
06  * 
07  */
08 public interface Coordinator {
09   /**
10    * @param name
11    * @return a new {@link Track} with name.
12    */
13   Track track(String name);
14 
15   /**
16    * {@link Track} record movings.
17    */
18   public interface Track {
19     /**
20      * Destory {@link Track} from {@link Coordinator}.
21      */
22     void destory();
23 
24     /**
25      * Move one step.
26      * 
27      * @return false means current {@link Track} need wait for balance, else
28      *         true.
29      * @throws IllegalStateException if track destoryed.
30      */
31     boolean move();
32   }
33 }

验收用例

    假定现在要协调两个人的步调, 每个人通过Track来汇报自己的走动的次数, 再根据汇报的反馈决定是暂定还是继续, 如下代码:

01   private final class Person implements Callable {
02     public Person(final Track track) {
03       this.track = track;
04     }
05 
06     @Override
07     public Integer call() throws Exception {
08       int steps = 0;
09       while (running.get()) {
10         if (canWalk()) steps++;
11       }
12       track.destory();
13       return steps;
14     }
15 
16     boolean canWalk() {
17       return track.move();
18     }
19 
20     private final Track track;
21   }

    接下来, 就是要验证两人走了一段时间后, 二者步数的差距应该不超过预设的范围, 则有:

01   @Test
02   public void shouldSynchronizedTwoWalker() throws Exception {
03     final int value = 10;
04     final Coordinator coordinator = Coordinators.coordinator(value);
05 
06     final List> futures =
07       Race.run(new Person(coordinator.track("0")),
08                new Person(coordinator.track("1")),
09                new DelayHaltCaller());
10     final int steps0 = futures.get(0).get();
11     final int steps1 = futures.get(1).get();
12     assertThat(Math.abs(steps1 - steps0), lessThanOrEqualTo(value));
13   }
14 
15   public final AtomicBoolean running = new AtomicBoolean(true);
16 
17   /**
18    * {@link DelayHaltCaller}
19    */
20   private final class DelayHaltCaller implements Callable {
21     @Override
22     public Integer call() throws Exception {
23       Thread.sleep(100L);
24       running.compareAndSet(true, false);
25       return 0;
26     }
27   }
