All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`java.util.List<Address>`	`hash(K key, short replication_count)`	Function that, given a key and a replication count, returns replication_count number of different addresses of nodes.
`void`	`installNodes(java.util.List<Address> nodes)`	When the topology changes, this method will be called.

```
java.util.List<Address> hash(K key,
                             short replication_count)
```
    Function that, given a key and a replication count, returns replication_count number of different addresses of nodes.
    
    Parameters:
    
    key -
    
    replication_count -
    
    Returns:
  - installNodes
```
void installNodes(java.util.List<Address> nodes)
```
    When the topology changes, this method will be called. Implementations will typically cache the node list
