ActiveDevice (patriot-framework 2.0.0 API)

All Known Implementing Classes:

ActiveDeviceImpl
```
public interface ActiveDevice
```
This interface provides possibility to simulate Device in time. Time intervals of data polling are determined from DataFeed. As Time Simulations requests data from Device with series of continuous tasks, the generated value itself is lost, therefore user is not able to get it as return value. This behavior requires use of DataObservable class and Observer Pattern.
