Line: 15 to 15

This hold stores entities in a queue until a condition is satisfied. However, the Hold module ONLY checks this condition WHEN A CALENDAR EVENT OCCURS.

Each time the condition is true an entity leaves the Hold module queue.

Consider the example of simulating an emergency waiting room. Incoming patients (entities) are placed into a queue based on their Patient Type. Patient Type is an attribute assigned to each entity earlier in the model. Entities will wait in the Emergency Room module in queue until they are removed from the queue by an nurse (entity) from a Remove module.
