The Model class maintains a list of components making up the model and controls the flow of entities (SimActors) through the model, following the process-interaction world-view. It maintains a time-ordered priority queue to activate/re-activate each of the entities. Each entity (SimActor) is implemented as a Coroutine and may be thought of as running in its own thread.

Concrete methods
The model itself is an Actor (not an ordinary SimActor) and may be thought of as the director. The director iteratively manages the clock and the agenda of actors until the simulation flag becomes false or the agenda (priority queue) becomes empty.
