Factory (xdevs 24.04 API)

java.lang.Object
- xdevs.core.modeling.Component
- - xdevs.core.modeling.Coupled
  - - xdevs.core.examples.dynamic.Factory

```
public class Factory
extends Coupled
```
Factory with dynamic number of machines. The factory has a generator, a transducer and a variable number of machines. When a job arrives, the factory sends it to the first idle machine. If there are no idle machines, a new machine is created and incorporated to the factory.
