/**
 * Class that adds further options for the retrieving of names of {@link SimProcess}'s. Specifically, it provides a
 * plain name for each process, that does not contain the number assigned by DESMO-J. However, these plain names are not
 * guaranteed to be unique.
 *
 * <p>
 * Also pre-computes the names of the entity so the strings are not generated on every method call. This gives a
 * performance improvement over the default implementation when read a large amount of names.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * Plain names should be used when it comes to generating new entity names based on other entity names to prevent chains
 * of unique identifiers.
