Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`void`	`addListener(UpdateListener<T> listener)`	The add-method for listeners for a dynamic preference aggregator
`PreferenceOrder<T>`	`aggregate(java.util.List<PreferenceOrder<T>> input)`	Abstract class for implementation of dynamic preference aggregation
`void`	`removeListener(UpdateListener<T> listener)`	The remove-method for listeners for a dynamic preference aggregator
`PreferenceOrder<T>`	`update(Update<T> update, java.util.List<PreferenceOrder<T>> input)`	This update stream is going to be used for dynamic changes in a preferences orders Input: ArrayList(Quadruple(PreferenceOrder, Number of Operations, Operation, Element)) e.g: weakening element b in PO test 2 times needs quadruple like this: Quadruple(test, 2, WEAKEN, b) Possible Structures: ArrayList, Queue Empty initialization, update() if stream is not empty
