     * (a) Process "added" events before "removed" events.
     * (b) The ordering of the "added" events should be:
     * addedSwitchEvents, addedPortEvents, addedLinkEvents,
     * addedDeviceEvents
     * The above ordering guarantees that adding a port for example
     * will be processed after the corresponding switch itself is added.

     * removedDeviceEvents, removedLinkEvents, removedPortEvents,
     * removedSwitchEvents
     * The above ordering guarantees that removing a port for example
     * will be processed before the corresponding switch itself is
