// Prototype for output queues. Concrete queues can implement
// drop-tail, RED etc. policy.
//
// The implementation of IOutputQueue
// can be either a simple module whose C++ class implements
// (i.e. subclass from) IPassiveQueue, or a compound module
// whose out gate is connected to a simple module implementing
// the IPassiveQueue interface. The IPassiveQueue component
// should send a packet whenever a module asks for one
// by calling the requestPacket() method.
